New submission from Stefan Krah <stefan-use...@bytereef.org>:

I can't see what this code is supposed to accomplish (see patch):

  while (collend < end) {
      if ((0 < *collend && *collend < 256) ||
          !Py_UNICODE_ISSPACE(*collend) ||
          Py_UNICODE_TODECIMAL(*collend))
          break;
  }


Since 'collend' and 'end' don't change in the loop, it would be
infinite if the 'if' condition evaluated to false. But the 'if'
condition is always true.
