subject: Golded area definition?

Hello There,

I am having a weird occurrence with a fresh install of the Linux flavor of 
Golded.

// Area definitions using the areadef keyword.
;Syntax: Echoid    "Description"  Groupid Type  Format  Path or board    Aka
(Attributes) "Origin"

areadef NETMAIL "Netmails"  0  Net Opus /home/mystic/msgs/netmail . (Loc Pvt) 

areadef FSX_GEN "FSX_GEN"   X  Echo Jam /home/mystic/msgs 21:1/128 . (loc)
"Fsxnet: The Twisted Balloon"

areadef FSX_MYS "FSX_MYS"   X  Echo Jam /home/mystic/msgs 21:1/128 . (loc)
"Fsxnet: The Twisted Balloon"

Note: The above is not word wrapped in the Golded config

But with Golded loaded and looking at the Golded arealist I see:

 Area  Description                        Msgs     New   EchoID  G
   1   Netmails                             0       0    NETMAIL
   2   FSX_MYS                              0       0    FSX_GEN X


Now if I enable another message area I get:

Echoid   "Description"  Groupid Type  Format  Path or board Aka (Attributes)
"Origin"
 areadef NETMAIL   "Netmails"  0  Net Opus /home/mystic/msgs/netmail . (Loc
Pvt)

 areadef FSX_GEN   "FSX_GEN"   X  Echo  Jam /home/mystic/msgs 21:1/128 . (loc)
"Fsxnet: The Twisted Balloon"

 areadef FSX_MYS   "FSX_MYS"   X  Echo  Jam /home/mystic/msgs 21:1/128 . (loc)
"Fsxnet: The Twisted Balloon"

 areadef FSX_MAG   "FSX_MAG"   X  Echo  Jam /home/mystic/msgs 21:1/128 . (loc)
"Fsxnet: The Twisted Balloon"


 Area  Description                        Msgs    New   EchoID   G
  1  Netmails                              0      0     NETMAIL
  2  FSX_MAG                               0      0     FSX_GEN  X

 I actually have some 200 message areas setup in Golded.cfg but all
 but these are commented out at the moment.

 I have tried a number of syntax changes to no avail. And regardless
 of how many message areas are enabled. Golded only shows the netmail
 area and one confused message area with Golded loaded.

 What the heck am I missing?
