Follow-up Comment #1, bug #31893 (project guile):

Very interesting! We can make the test case shorter:

> (format #f "~9,8,,,0g" 0.001)
$1 = "x00x00x00x00x00x00x00x00x00"


I think the x00 bytes are because of the recent make-string change
(3ef6650def28f7c29a2cc983086468d3195167d4). The control chars you were seeing
previously were just random bytes from memory (!), whatever was there before
make-string was called.

I'm on it!
