Signoff?

It is much easier to read if you said that backwards:

        Numeric color only worked if it was at end of line.
        Noticed by Chris Larson <clarson@kergoth.com>.

Hmph.  Is it the same as (end-name) == len?

Please add a test so that your fix won't be broken by others who
might later touch this code.
