While this may not change the behaviour of the code, I think that
only shows the original is broken.  You even have the hint left in
the context of your patch:

>  		# do not print empty line after signoff

> -			next if ($empty || $signoff);

Given this input:

	If $signoff is set to 1, ...
        ...
        rid of it.

	Signed-off-by: N K

        Signed-off-by: J C H

isn't the code trying (and failing) to remove the empty line between
the two S-o-b lines?

So something like this on top?  I renamed "$empty" which is unclear
what it means ("We just saw an empty line? What does the variable
want us to do?") to "$skip_blank_line" which more clearly instructs
us what to do.  If we see a blank line when it is set, we skip it.
