<pre>That's just the very basic rules of the file format, a feature and expected
behavior. \n is the record separator, only leading whitespace declares
continuation lines.
Try inserting a comment line starting with '#'.
If you want/need more fancy comment placements, just change the parser and
send a patch; but we cannot just allow completely empty lines in records, that
wouldn't be valid any more.</pre>
