I would like to read a file into a slist so that each line is a list element.

# This is a comment

body common control {

        bundlesequence => {
                "main",
        };
}

bundle agent main {

        methods:

        "any" usebundle => test;

}

bundle agent test {

        vars:

                "list" slist => readstringlist( "/home/n463345/tmp/rsl.cf", 
"#.*", "\n", "10", "100000");

        reports:

                cfengine::
                        "list: ${list}";
}


This works only if no comment strings exist.  If comments are found nothing is 
read into memory.  Sounds like a bug.  Any workarounds?
