Twice already I've asked "WHY" and you still haven't answered that
question. Why is the whitespace being removed at all?

Because that is intentional, however, it affect results as your case,
when the string is consisting entirely of whitespace.

Well, anyway, maybe this isn't a good idea, it was only my idea.

So why are you explicitly fixing only half of the bug and leaving the
other half in?

The actual implementation strip trailing whitespaces, my patch also do
it, but when the string contains only whitespaces, it remove just \r and
\n.

In your patch it appears that you are still deliberately removing
whitespace. Why?
