Yes, that works to avoid misunderstandings.
I'd probably write something like "reduce size of buffer for
base64-encoded string, the <name of base64 function> implementation was
changed to need less/no extra space" (since it caused no bug, e.g. that
it is related to the "HTTP authentication request field buffer" seems
completely uninteresting to me).
But write whatever you like, my intention is not to force my idea of
commit messages on anyone, just trying to help improve everyone's "commit
message writing skill" :-)
