New description:

 This ruleset:

 https://gitweb.torproject.org/https-
 everywhere.git/commitdiff/41ad47b404820ffecf178a969d24ed091a98f6fe

 Triggered a bug in Alex's ruleset crushing code in the build script. The
 symptom was that HTTPS Everywhere could no longer parse the resulting
 default.rulesets file.

 Re-spacing it was an effective workaround, but at some point we should fix
 those regexps or replace them with something more elegant in Python.
