[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider
[ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies,
[ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example.
I discovered a call to split-string that looked like this:
(split-string recipients "[ \t\n]*,[ \t\n]*")
This has a bug: it fails to discard whitespace from the
start of the first substring or the end of the last.
I would guess that there are many such bugs.
To provide a clean and easy way to fix this, I have implemented a new
argument TRIM in split-string. Please take a look.
