I think if we can't trust reviewers to catch this kind of thing, we're
in trouble (i.e., moving too fast). :)

So FWIW my instinct is to leave the comment out, since I actually find
it more readable that way (otherwise I would wonder, "Why am I being
told that a strbuf's buffer has a nonconstant address?  Do some other
strbufs have a constant address or something?")

Thanks,
Jonathan
