Bug in "svnlook info" / "svnlook log" or its documentation

With svnlook, version 1.4.2 (r22196), "svnlook info" and "svnlook log"
add a newline after the log message. However,

  http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn-book.html#svn.ref.svnlook

just says "log message":

  svnlook info — Print the author, datestamp, log message size, and log
  message.

  svnlook log — Print the log message.

Moreover, the example concerning "svnlook info" is:

$ svnlook info -r 40 /usr/local/svn/repos
sally

15
Rearrange lunch.

The number of characters in "Rearrange lunch.", without taking into
account the possible newline, is 16. So, why does "svnlook info"
output 15 for the log message size? It should be 16 or 17 (here
svnlook takes the additional newline into account, so that it would
probably be 17).

Oops, 16, since it does *not* take the additional newline into account.

Fixed in r2878.  Thanks, Vincent.

Any news? It seems that nothing has changed in r2877.

BTW, the book should be very clear on whether a newline is added
after the log message or not. This is important for hook scripts.

It probably doesn't.  The book probably has a hand-tweaked example that was
hand-tweaked wrongly.  :-)
