Hi,

there is still (or again) an error in the handling of comments:  In
LaTeX, everything after a `%' including the `%' itself and the
whitespace at the beginning of the next line is _completely ignored_.
Right now, L2H replaces that with a linebreak.  This results in
spurious whitespace during bibliography processing, as bibtex inserts
comments to break up overlong lines.

Please apply the following patch:
