Peter, watch out for the length parameter to these functions.  The
length to specify is the number of bytes in the longer parameter.
For cvthc, the length is the number of bytes in the result, but for
cvtch, the length is the number of bytes in the source.

In your call to cvtch, only the first half of OutputChar would have
the expected result.
