The pattern that this functions searches for determines the tag 
uniquely. But here's a catch: no programming language creates distinc 
entities (ones that end up in the tag), based only on trailing space. 
I.e. "foo()" and "    foo()   " always refer to the same thing.

So this change gives 2 improvements:
1. Emacs gonna stop failing finding a tag when someone simply 
reindented the sources
2. As a side effect, this works around a problem, when a 
tags-generating program trimmed the whitespace (the commit has a link 
to anjuta-tags bugreport about that).

"CR" is part of the whitespace, so per description above comparison to 
it is simply unnecessary.
