Follow-up Comment #5:

Philip, I agree that the old mode of trying to continue is problematic.  It is
probably better just to alert the user that the file is problematic.  If the
user needs something more flexible, they should probably do their own
parsing.

The attached patch gets rid of the "continue" option entirely, so that we only
have the two Matlab-compatible options.

Rik's original example still behaves differently from 4.0.0, but I believe it
now does what Matlab does: return only {[1]}.
