Package: coreutils
Version: 6.10-6
Severity: important
File: /usr/bin/csplit

I don't think I am reading the manpage wrongly... csplit seems to be
on crack:

% csplit - '/\n\n/' '{*}' <<_eof
a

b

c

d
_eof
11
% ls
xx00
% cat xx00
a

b

c

d
% rm xx00 
% echo 'a1b1c1d' | csplit - '/1/' '{*}'
0
8
% ls
xx00  xx01
% head *
==> xx00 <==

==> xx01 <==
a1b1c1d

I misread the manpage. csplit can only do splitting on lines, which
is a shame, but so be it. /^\s*$/ is the regexp I needed.
