Subject: [PATCH] Remove buffer overread in tExtToDataBuf

The pointer p is advanced in the while loop to step over three '\n'.
However, its length is never reduced accordingly. => the length check in the
following for loop is invalid, as it permits overreading by the number of
characters that p was advanced by.
