ok - I didn't spot that one.

That was why I ifdef'd the code.  Here's what the manpage says

NOTES
       The  strsep() function was introduced as a replacement for
       strtok(), since the latter  cannot  handle  empty  fields.
       (However,  strtok()  conforms  to ANSI-C and hence is more
       portable.)
