Apparently somewhere in the bowels of the "Crazy xdl interfaces", empty
lines are skipped over, thus the line number counting in
checkdiff_consume() is off? I dunno, I briefly looked into fixing it but
it didn't seem like a quick fix.

Good catch, thanks.

This is not xdl interface, but simply a miscounting by the user
of xdl interface.  Here is a fix.

diff: Fix miscounting of --check output

c1795bb (Unify whitespace checking) incorrectly made the
checking function return without incrementing the line numbers
when there is no whitespace problem is found on a '+' line.

This resurrects the earlier behaviour.

Noticed and reported by Jay Soffian.
