Sorry for taking a couple of days over this, but I've tracked it down.
The problem is that putting the browser in square brackets (instead of the
usual quote marks) is unsafe, because the browser string contains square
brackets itself. It looks to analog as if the browser is
Mozilla/4.6 [en
and then it finds some junk looking like
(WinNT; U)]
on the end of the line and rejects it as corrupt.
