@deftypefn Extension char* concat (const char *@var{s1}, const char *@var{s2}, @

Concatenate zero or more of strings and return the result in freshly
@code{xmalloc}ed memory.  The argument list is terminated by the first
@code{NULL} pointer encountered.  Pointers to empty strings are ignored.

is freed after the string is created.  This is intended to be useful
when you're extending an existing string or building up a string in a
