+Subject: [PATCH] Fix memory corruption in ephy_string_shorten()
+
+This fixes a regression that I introduced in 232c613472b38ff0d0d97338f366024ddb9cd228.
+
+I got my browser stuck in a crash loop today while visiting a website
+with a page title greater than ephy-embed.c's MAX_TITLE_LENGTH, the only
+condition in which ephy_string_shorten() is ever used. Turns out this
+commit is wrong: an ellipses is a multibyte character (three bytes in
+UTF-8) and so we're writing past the end of the buffer when calling
+strcat() here. Ooops.
+
+Shame it took nearly four years to notice and correct this.
