-   instead of the "^Defaults[:@]?" line.

+3) In list mode (sudo -l), characters escaped with a backslash
    are shown verbatim with the backslash.
 
-5) Because the parser only does a single pass it is possible to
-   make a sudoers file where the "defaults" options are set after
-   a user's entry has been validated, changing the permissions for
-   the user.  The work-around is to put all 'defaults' entries
-   before the "User privilege specification" section but after all
-   the "alias specifications".  In the future the parser will
-   converted to a two-pass parser.

-6) For the same reason as #5, changing the value of "ignore_dot" has
-   no effect (find_path() is called before sudoers is parsed).
