Thanks.  I think most of ltrace still assumes that erase isn't actually
available, so this never came up.

I decided to go with a different fix, because the continue would skip
over the check for loops that's next.  I took your test case
though--thanks for that.  I applied the test case under your name even
though I touched your patch, so speak up if you are uncomfortable what I
ended up committing.

Thanks,
Petr
