mercurial/strutil.py

don't return uninitialized memory from bdiff.blocks()

bdiff.blocks() returns a dummy match at the end of both files; the
length of that chunk is never set, so it will sometimes contain random
heap garbage. There are apparently workarounds for this elsewhere:

  # bdiff sometimes gives huge matches past eof, this check eats them,
