Given that the available file is mostly useful for dselect and that fixing this bug is of almost zero interest, I'm tagging it wontfix so that it doesn't clutter our view in the BTS. It's a "soft" wontfix in the sense that if anyone comes up with a patch, we're willing to look at it... but otherwise our time is better spent on fixing other bugs.
