Because the ss library has an ss_execute_line which can be called by
users of the library and given an arbitrary string to execute, it's
possible for ss to be asked to execute a string containing newlines,
even though it's a line-oriented command language.
I believe that it should treat the newline character as whitespace
just as it treats spaces and tabs as whitespace.
The patch to the library below fixes this problem.
