I could not be sure just reading at the patch, but as I said, if it was
tested for various uses of spaces (and apparently it was), then please go
ahead.

Except for a few conversion specifiers, including %[foo].

One last point though:

skip_spaces() is precisely implemented using sscanf(*arg, " %n", &len): how
comes it works while the other places do not?
