i first noticed this in 1.02, but didn't want to mention anything until 
checking a more recent version (testing now with 1.08)... in any case, it 
seems harmless but weird.

this seems to only affect the "X" option... when minting stamps, the 
output as padded with spaces...

   $ hashcash -mX foo | tr ' ' '*'
   X-Hashcash:*1:20:040913:foo::buzklS2p+dpWP/Mr:000043BI****************

quite a bit weirder when the header is folded...

   $ hashcash -mX [email protected] | tr ' ' '*'
   X-Hashcash:*1:20:040913:[email protected]::2d2cR4EE5niZ4oMeXynBBqya
           JfrWu:00002aR6************************************************
