What is the problem? Everything that you said SHOULD happen does, on
both GNU/Linux and W32. So I don't think I see it either.
Hm. Yes, I can see now I misunderstood the [:space:] character class.
It was not exactly what I thought. I believed \r and \n belonged to
this character class (though I understand it can not).
This explains why the pattern did not match. However it does not
explain why it matched later in point 3. I am still so surprised by
this that I had to test it once again to be sure.
To my surprise I can not reproduce this now. I did several tests before
with emacs -Q and it work the way I described all the times. Richard
can't see it, Jason don't see the problem, I could see it but not now.
It is beginning to look like a possibly intermittent hardware memory
problem to me. But I am not sure yet, those are hard to track down. So -
just drop it for now at least. I will come back if I come to another
conclusion than the one above.
