Hmm, diffs aren't quoted properly either.  Oh my...

Well, what I wanted to say is the following.  Looking just at one line
is certainly not enough.  Consider at the following example:

>>50 cases in which our software fails.  This

'>' may appear at the beginning of a line accidently, and we certainly
want to supply the space character in this case.
