Sarath's right. This issue probably /IS/ more Genbank's
fault than ours, but realistically the BioJava parser is
being far too strict. Especially since it doesn't validate
for the presence of other header entries -- just GI.
I've added an extra conditional in the code, and it now
tolerates VERSION lines which just contain a single token.
Sarath: this is checked into CVS now -- do you have access
to the CVS versions?
