It's easy ;-) It's the "whitespace" part. I read it as the space character, 
not as any blank character. I should have noted that new lines are ignored 
too, but I didn't. 

(I just looked a little around in my system and it seems like it's not just my 
own opinion, the ascii(7), regex(7) and wctype(3) man pages talk about spaces 
and blank characters, and the latter means what is meant by "whitespace" in 
python docs).

Anyway, you (and Michael, who replied off-list) made it really clear.

Thanks,

Tiago.
