No, it's wrong no matter what you pass.  Const Options(*String) will
pass the pointer by reference rather than by value whether you pass a
character expression or a pointer.  (Every pointer I've ever looked at
the hex value of starts with x'800000', so the function probably thinks
it's getting two null-terminated strings x'80' and x'80'.)
