If i is now the size of the buffer, this is a buffer overflow, no ? And
the initial loop should start at "i - 1" I think...

...but the size is in fact "i + 1"... So in strip_whitespace(), i is the
index of the last possible character in the string, and given that the
string may be much shorter, that function may not actually strip
whitespaces after the string...

So this call should really be:

	strip_whitespace(strlen(vendor_id) - 1, vendor_id);

Which means that this helper can be turned into:

static void strip_whitespace(char *buf)
{
	int i = strlen(buf) - 1;

	while (i > 0 && buf[i] == ' ')
		i--;
	buf[i+1] = '\0';
}

Unless I am missing something :)
