I've not moved the code as such.  I added a loop to drop the leading
whitespace.  That made the second loop redundant as its job is already
done, so I killed it.

The point of the patch is to strip the empty lines at the start of
the commit.  I am ending up with them in my repo mostly due to
imcompetant users of SVN I suspect.  The main driver is that I have
those and the original non-C version coped and the builtin does not.

Now if people think that its a stupid idea I might suggest it could be
optional?
