Commit 20077c14, "make trim() return pointer to terminating NULL",
avoids a superfluous store if the string doesn't need to be trimmed, but
accidentally returns a pointer to the end of the string.
Move the 's += len' statement to inside the if statement to make sure we
return a pointer to the start of the string.
