Hello,

I got a bug when using meltgc_new_split_string (in melt-runtime.c) with 
a string (argument str) like this one "<sep>mystring<sep>anotherString" 
with <sep> the separator. The function is not working on a string that 
start with the separator.
I guess this case can happen in real case, for exemple when an user give 
arguments with a space as a separator.

The function was also not working properly on a string like this one: 
"firstStr<sep><sep>secondStr".

With the patch, we get a correct list, ignoring the possible presence of 
a first separator and of separator immediatly followed by another.

I took this opportunity to add a small comment to the function (in the 
second diff).
