In fact, it makes even less sense the more i think about it (no
offense, i'm just thinking out in email. Parsing is a hobby of
mine. Written two full C++ parsers. shiver.).
because the format is still technically the same.

%d ><random source line>\n
vs
%d <random source line>\n

I can't imagine anyone designing a regex parsing the list output
format that this would affect.
([0-9]+)" "([^\n]+) over each line would give you the line number, and
the rest of the line (I think).
It wouldn't be affected by this change.
My point is, their is nothing i can think of that would make something
think this list format is different than a normal source file which
happened to start with > on a single line.
