 {{{
 $ cat test_js.rb
 framework "JavaScriptCore"

 string = JSStringCreateWithUTF8CString("hello")
 size = JSStringGetMaximumUTF8CStringSize(string)
 buffer = Pointer.new('c')
 JSStringGetUTF8CString(string, buffer, size)

 puts buffer[0] # expect "hello"
 }}}

 {{{
 $ macruby test_js.rb
 104
 }}}

 I was expecting the display as "hello".
 But a decimal number of the first character is only displayed.
