heh, ok.
To understand the code, I was debugging it and looking at the
pointers `recs[ix - 1]->ptr` which is pointing into the text file,
i.e. when printing it in the debugger it would read
'\n\tbla\n\nfoo\n ...'
so I found that a proper description at the time.

ok, will do. Given that xdiff upstream and our code diverged over the years,
I could apply this helper function at other places in the code as well.

I think to drop this comment in the final version of this patch.
As I `wrote` this loop by copying it from above, I tried justifying
each change to it. (More to prove to myself I understood the code)
will drop this comment.
