Unused? Well, then (IMO) it should just go away.

I see no reason to apply canonicalization to stringbufs. The stringbuf type
should be reserved only to "uses" of appending lots of bytes to build up a
final string. We should not encourage other uses (via the presence of
functions which operate on stringbufs).
