Two-character fix
Parser.php contains a strange construct (line 1703):
$s = rtrim($s . "\n");
I would guess the added newline is just a waste of time/memory, since it gets
trimmed again immediately. I believe the original author (see r8309) intended
to write a comma instead of a dot.
And indeed, the line should IMHO read
$s = rtrim($s, "\n");
because at the current version, spaces before category links are ignored, so
that wikitext like “Lorem [[Category:Foo]]ipsum]]” ends up showing
“Loremipsum”, not “Lorem ipsum” one might expect (see the attached
URL).
Not that it would be any major bug ;-)
