Well, the leafnode version is always interesting, but thanks for
pointing me in the right direction.

Cecil,

I have found the bug; whitespace between the value and comment are not
stripped in leafnode versions up to 1.11.10, or leafnode 2 alphas
released before today, 2013-07-10.

Fix committed to Git for leafnode-1 and leafnode-2, to appear in the
respective next releases.


Workaround possibilities for older versions:

server = "news.kpn.nl" # some comment
(quote the value)

server = news.kpn.nl# some comment
(no whitespace before the comment)

# comment before the server line:
server = news.kpn.nl


Thanks for the bug report!

Best regards
Matthias
