Summary: reindent chokes on empty first lines

Initial Comment:
If a file has an empty first line, and a hanging
comment, reindent crashes. For the attached file, I get

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/src/python/Tools/scripts/reindent.py",
line 271, in ?
    main()
  File "/usr/src/python/Tools/scripts/reindent.py",
line 65, in main
    check(arg)
  File "/usr/src/python/Tools/scripts/reindent.py",
line 90, in check
    if r.run():
  File "/usr/src/python/Tools/scripts/reindent.py",
line 187, in run
    want = have + getlspace(after[jline-1]) - \
IndexError: list index out of range

Thanks for whittling this down!  reindent wasn't expecting 
all-whitespace lines at the start of a file.  That bad 
assumption is now repaired, in

Tools/scripts/reindent.py; new revision: 1.3
