Watch out for other problems with these files - some things will
handle them fine, but many versions of common tools will drop the
last line. Running the files through sed, for example, may chop
off the last line. (We experienced that with some configuration
files - some of the developers decided to make them "neater" by
removing the last newline. That broke our build and was very
hard to track down.)
