Not if it's a buggered entry - which it doesn't appear to be.  The problem
is that now that I've stopped manually editing out the buggered entries,
favouring doing it automatically, any update to the file ends up breaking
the damned thing for someone.

It's rather too late in the cycle for me to commit an update now - I
suspect doing so will upset a lot of people.
