These are very loooong rules (because of the obfuscation tests), and I
suspect the problem was caused by line wrapping somewhere along the way.
I don't see that problem in the original biz_market_learn.cf file on the
web site, so I fear I must ask:

How did you download the file, and then how did you save it to your
system? If you used any editor or word processor that might wrap text,
that could be the cause.

Another possibility:  If you saved the file on a Windows/DOS machine, and
then copied it to a Unix machine without translating for the O/S
difference, that could also cause similar symptoms.
