Ah, my very old solaris browser (Netscape 4.6) could also make such a file so
I figure this is a "feature"... I just commited the cookie file parser fix
to CVS.

Speaking of the netscape cookie file, is there anyone who would be willing to
dig down the mozilla source to figure out what the second field in every line
means?

Every cookie is stored with seven fields of data and curl understands and
uses six of those fields. The one it doesn't understand obviously is a
boolean value but what does it tell us?
