I wonder why we need back and oldBack (reallyOldBack ?) in the first place.
Condensing sources or changes should just consist in writing source of each
method/class comment sequentially (forward), and remember the position of
the stream... So this backward thing must be some poorly written part.

Hi,
I was looking why we cannot do condenseChanges and the reason looks to be
clear: we do not have proper methods to move backwards (messages #back and #
oldBack) in UTF-8 files. The current implementation changes position by one
byte but in UTF-8 files it can be up to six bytes. And it's worse.
