A bug was discovered where, under certain circumstances that are still
being researched, the library would panic on a message that started with
\0x01, but did not end with it. This would cause the re-slice to panic,
because the library assumes a terminating index >0, effectively
introducing the possibility of msg = msg[1:0]. Since this violates the
CTCP spec, it is an error, and should be logged, along with the
complete, escaped message.
