Hrm. So I don't think this is _wrong_ per se, but the first thing we do
in the loop is check isspace(), which a newline should match. And you
can't see it from the diff context, but it always hits a continue, which
would then advance to the NUL and exit the loop.

So I'm puzzled why this change is necessary. Am I missing something?
We would increase the gap and perforation if we're in them, so I guess
it could have an impact on the line-length heuristics that come at the
end of the function. Is that it?
