Hi,

here's something that breaks NCV :

with a message like this :

status farm1.tld.something green Fri Aug 25 10:21:44 CEST 2006 things ok

&green All ok

pigs: 32 carrots: 221 guinea pigs: 4 this is a boring message blobs: 3 water: 4 %

and NCV declaration like this (or no declaration at all) :

NCV_something="*:GAUGE"

I get this : $ rrdtool dump something.rrd | grep name <name> greenAllokpigs </name> <name> carrots </name> <name> guineapigs </name> <name> thisisaboringmessag </name> <name> water </name>

One workaround is to explicitly declare DS names, but ncv should reset on building DS names on newlines.

(running 4.2.0 + patches)
