After looking at the implementation, it may not save much since we'll
need to make a std::string to call out to GetDefinitions anyways pending
dev/string-apis, so the need to make strings exists already, so just
using char* references into the result array won't save a construction
(a string is made down below when calling .find() on the variable
storage, so even making an overload won't save a string construction).
