As the line is traversed, sawSomething gets 0 at every comma and 1 at
every other non-space.  At the point you mention, the end of the line has
been reached and the remainder of the function records the address since
the last comma.  But if sawSomething==0 (i.e., the comma ended the line)
that address would be ""; including that as a recipient has undesired
consequences, so the patch causes a return instead.

Thank you both for alerting me to this, I will pay more attention to it in
the future.

I would be happy to, but be aware that it will almost certainly be a
couple of weeks before I look at it---so if anyone else wants at it, I
encourage them.
