2.0.4 gives bus error on opening file saved in r15458

[Derek Atkins]

It's a known issue that 2.0.x wont read the state file from r15458
and above (see the IRC logs from today).  There's a patch awaiting
backport that will let 2.0.5 read the new (spaceless) state files.

Blame it all on the glib folks.
