Hm, is it me or does only the fast path care about `lengthu` and the one with the codepoint iterator ignores it?

@MasterDuke17 Indeed, because the units of `lengthu` are graphemes, but we iterate codepoints. It seems that actually none of the other encoders really pay attention to `length` either, though, which...

If possible, doing a build with the MoarVM flags `--asan --debug=3` would provide useful info also (or `rakudo-valgrind-m`, but that slows things down a lot).

Well yes, mentioning what didn't build would have helped. :-) Do `export ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=0` and try again.
