I'm guessing that "after header" was just an implementation error.  It

the very last terminator.

Maybe the correct fix is just to make tformat not broken?
I do agree. 'tformat' is broken. But my point was more that 'tformat' was 
introduced for all the wrong reasons (ie that 'format' was broken, and 
then instead of fixing 'format', people introduced 'tformat' with a 
_different_ brokenness).
