You're right.  There has been a format change to the SDR cache.  I did
add a bit more "tightness" to the parsing, perhaps not ignoring as many
parsing errors as the prior code may have allowed before.

Does this bug only occur when you create the SDR cache?  Does the
failure also happen when you re-run ipmi-sel and it attempts to re-load
the SDR cache?

Is it possible you could send me the SDR cache file itself?  That way I
can find out what the weird corner case parsing issue is.  Then file
would be in ~/.freeipmi/sdr-cache/.

Thanks,
Al
