bug#4616: 23.1.50; empty script files

[Markus Rost <rost@math.uni-bielefeld.de>]

One more thing about unread_char in lread.c.  That variable should
start with value -1 rather than value 0.  The current initial value 0
means that the character 0 is added in front of loadup.el when
building emacs.  Now since loadup.el isn't empty, this doesn't cause
a read error, the additional character will be just skipped and the
value of unread_char is set to -1 after loading loadup.el.

So one doesn't notice the wrong initial value.  But maybe one changes
that for clarity.
