Lines: 13 Oh no! The bug fix you posted has a bug, too. The line while ((c = getc(fp)) == ' ' || c == 't') /* skip white space */ should be while ((c = getc(fp)) == ' ' || c == '\t') /* skip white space */ I think this bug is pretty innocuous. I haven't tried, but a header continuation line that looks like this would probably trigger it: Bug-Infested-Header: doesn't matter what goes here this line must start with 't'
