bug#22504: 2014-11-01; RefTeX fails to find \input unless it is at the beginning of the line

[post]

Dear developers,

The main file of my LaTeX document is mostly just a wrapper that
includes the actual content:

  \clearpage \input{algebra}
  \clearpage\input{constructions}
  \clearpage
  \input{logic}
  \clearpage
  \input{model}
  \clearpage
  \input{derived}

I would expect RefTeX to properly follow the \input commands, and find
sections and labels in all the files. However, RefTeX only sees the
sections and labels from logic, model and derived - the ones from
algebra and constructions are missing. It seems that following \input
only works if that command is right at the beginning of the file.

Kind regards,
Ralf
