 	* src/text.c (break_line): Initialize a variable to avoid a compiler
 	warning, rename it to be more apt, add a comment, tweak some others,
 	and remove an unneeded 'if'.
+	* src/char.c (move_mbleft): Avoid a compiler warning (int → size_t),
+	rename the variable, and another, and straighten out the logic.
