I have checked in a fix for blank lines in Genbank feature entries.  The parser
will print a warning to screen and ignore the blank line(s).

See Bio/GenBank/__init__.py revision: 1.58

If you manage to find anymore "unusual Genbank files" please file another bug.

Thanks Leighton.

I don't know - but if so, the same thing happened with my browser's FTP
support.  Even if this is just a file transfer issue, I still think we should
cope.  My personal opionion is this is just a one-off bad entry in the NCBI's
records, but that BioPython should be able to read anything they produce.
