I could be ignorant of some details, it appears if the comment for a record is
placed above the first field, and there is more than one record in a record
set, the comment is added as a separate record.

Below (and attached) will output:
Record Set: Test
Record Count: 3

This is unvaried if instead a comment is prepended to the second record, or it
will count 4 if prepended to both.

Potentially caused by
[https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/recutils.git/tree/src/rec-parser.c#n919
rec-parser.c#920].

test.rec:

%rec: Test

#If first line is a comment, and there are 2+ records... This is its own
record.
Line: This should be record 1, but it's 2.

Line: This should be record 2, but it's 3.


main.c:

#include <rec.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void) {
    FILE *file;
    rec_parser_t parser;
    rec_rset_t rset;

    file = fopen("test.rec", "r");
    parser = rec_parser_new(file, "test.rec");

    while (rec_parse_rset(parser, &rset)) {
        printf("Record Set: %s\n", rec_rset_type(rset));
        printf("Record Count: %d\n", rec_rset_num_elems(rset));
    }

    rec_rset_destroy(rset);
    rec_parser_destroy(parser);
    fclose(file);
    return 0;
}
