Hi Wanrong,

thanks for this patch - it is not the correct fix in this case, it is an issue
having to do with the fact that an empty line cannot hold text properties,
and that orgmode marks lines that are protected from processing by
putting a text property on it.  In this case, the fix is to continue the
loop looking for additional protected lines until the first non-empty,
unprotected line is found.  I am fixing this in the next release.

Bastien, thanks for your input on this as well.
