I think there actually _is_ a bug in that code path, but it's unrelated
to this one. If you have whitespace at the end of the buffer, then we'd
advance *cp until it matches *endp, and then return whatever is at *endp
(which is nonsense, or probably a NUL) rather than returning "-1".
I'm out of time for tonight and not familiar enough with the color-moved
code to come up with a reasonable test case quickly, but maybe you can
see if that can trigger bad behavior?
