The problem is that the sentence-end regexp doesn't allow white space
at the end of a line.  The following definition fixes this.

 < Stephen


(defconst sentence-end (purecopy "[.?!][]\"')}]*\\([ \t]*$\\|\t\\|  \\)[ \t\n]*") "\
*Regexp describing the end of a sentence.
All paragraph boundaries also end sentences, regardless.")
