	done <input-file

Ok, somehow in an earlier patch to quiltimport I picked up an incorrect
notion that they could contain a blank, but then that's fine.

Will queue, but I am very well into my merge binge for tonight (and it
hasn't finished even though it is past 3 AM, sheesh), so it will be in the
