Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:
Several of the header lines in /usr/src/etc/services contain UTF-8
sequences which ought not be there; looks like a Mac text editor
or wysiwig editor being used on a text file. [I do understand that
UTF-8 is relevant in email addresses, although, given the
normalization of the other names, the "areaguard-neo" line
seems out of whack as well; I think there are others in there.
