I didn't remember the main reason why I removed that (cdr ptr). The
reason is not only that the comment above it is wrong, but also that this
(cdr ptr) condition itself is wrong: it makes that loop stop when the last
element of the buffer-undo-list is reached. When buffer-undo-list is
initially nil, (funcall body) adds a number of entries in
buffer-undo-list, and there is no reason to exit that loop without
processing its last element.
