I think so.  Even tho' this is about 193.238.120.7 which is spamhaused,
Ellen may want to do routing for the /22 for AS34835

route:          193.238.120.0/22
descr:          Polivektor JSC
origin:         AS34835
mnt-by:         POLIVEKTOR-MNT
source:         RIPE # Filtered

because I don't think fixing the algorithm to take care of this is going
to happen real quick.  It would have to ignore some empty lines or one
empty line, and I /think/ that would cause troubles in other situations,
but I'm not sure.

Spamhaus is working  v e r r r y  s l o w w w l y  right now, so I don't
know how the listing is.
