For what it's worth, if you want a workaround, you can make a main cfg file
that exec's the other configs you wish to execute.

So, "myconfigfile.cfg" could contain...
exec config1.cfg
exec otherconfig.cfg
exec onemore.cfg

I don't know if you were looking for a workaround in addition to reporting
the bug, or just reporting it, but I figured I'd mention it just in case.
For all I know, you've already set it up like the above, but still wanted
to make the list/Valve aware of it.
