188 * do at the end. It explains that I'm meant to ignore spurious `='
189 * characters, and points out that I'm not guaranteed to see anything
190 * interesting at the end. I'll play safe here, and ignore all `='
191 * characters, relying on my client to work out when to stop feeding me
192 * data. I'll use the queue size to work out how many tail-end bytes

203 * might save some unexpected behaviour. (Not that you won't still get
