After upgrading to sendmail 8.17.1 I find that continuation lines, as
documented in aliases(5), no longer work:

    # svn diff
    Index: aliases
    ===================================================================

I found a thread in the comp.mail.sendmail google group with a patch:

(After unmangling the whitespace) it fixes the error, I'll attach a version of
the patch.
