Ah, it took me a while to see why the second line didn't create the error
then. I suppose it is because 0.0000<cr>-8.0000 was interpreted as 0-8
instead of two distinct values 0 and -8. So the X,Y,Z triples would have
been wrong anyway.

Does this mean, that every value that is #read is immediately interpreted,
before it is processed any further?
