Hi,

I'm being annoyed with a strange behavior in the auto-fill-mode.
When I type SPC at the end of a line and the column just equals
fill-column, breaking the line takes place at the end of the word
in front of one, not there.  Here's an example:

---------x---------x---------x---------x---------x---------x---------x
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps

When fill-column is 70, that line will be folded as follows after
typing SPC at the end of the line:

---------x---------x---------x---------x---------x---------x---------x
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox
jumps 

I made a change temporarily like the following patch in order to
cope with the problem:

*** fill.el~    Sun Apr 18 22:21:52 2004
--- fill.el     Thu May 27 10:29:30 2004
***************
*** 333,339 ****
  and `fill-nobreak-invisible'."
    (or
     (and fill-nobreak-invisible (line-move-invisible (point)))
!    (unless (bolp)
      (or
       ;; Don't break after a period followed by just one space.
       ;; Move back to the previous place to break.
--- 333,339 ----
  and `fill-nobreak-invisible'."
    (or
     (and fill-nobreak-invisible (line-move-invisible (point)))
!    (unless (or (bolp) (looking-at "[ \t]*$"))
      (or
       ;; Don't break after a period followed by just one space.
       ;; Move back to the previous place to break.
