I will look at this patch.

Sorry, I should say replace by macros, instead of "remove". Is it fine
to keep the #ifdef inside the struct or should I remove the #ifdef and
keep "yajl_gen g" field even if it will not be used (in case
DEBUG_ANSWER in undef) ?

This should not be necessary as the read size (rd) is always used.

This printf seams to work better with "%.*s". I will use that, so no
more zero-terminited buffer and no more buffer overrun.
