Hey guys don't forget we're on the same team here. I tried making this change myself, but either my smattering of awk knowledge is not enough or something else is going on here. I made up a variable and striped the spaces from it and used that for the tests, but it gives the same error we started with. Then I realized that the original variable was already being stripped (see line 199)! The ~ comparison must be doing something other than just stripping spaces as per the regex. Anybody know what else is going on there? Here is my attempted patch.
