So I've been pondering a skip_endbr() function for all these sites.

I just couldn't decide making it a 'function' and having a signature
like:

	ip = skip_endbr(ip);

or making it macro magic and it reading:

	skip_endbr(ip);

Which is why I've not cleaned it up yet.  This being C(ish) I suppose
the former is less confusing, so let me go do that.
