We run 2.10.1 here at AT&T-ISL in Denver.  I noticed that if a line in
my sys file was too long inews would abort.  I got around this by
splitting the line for a system in half.  Each half was in the same
format as if the line had been shorter, i.e.,
systemname:groups:flags:command|filename.  This, however, wouldn't
work for the current system as inews evidently reads only the first
line and uses it for the current system.
