Oh yeah.  Will fix.

Not in this case, since I do not use message.buf as long as message.len == 
0.  But I agree it would be cleaner to just use STRBUF_INIT.

Well, this empty line is needed to stay backwards compatible. It was added to pass the test that Junio added to 'next'. As such, this function is not really generic enough, right?

Well, I meant to mention it in the cover letter. My preference is to do away with the extra empty line. But this might break existing setups depending on that behaviour.
