Is anyone having issues with rancid collecting the inventory when there are "^" characters in the output?

   !NAME: "temperature outlet 9 ", DESCR: "module 9 outlet temperature Sensor"
   !NAME: "temperature inlet 9 ",  DESCR: "module 9 inlet temperature Sensor"
+ !NAME: "temperature device-1 9 ", DESCR: "module 9 device-1 temperature Sensor"
+ !NAME: "temperature device-2 9 ", DESCR: "module 9 device-2 temperature Sensor"
   !opv1^T^LB
   !NAME: "Gi9/2",                 DESCR: "Transceiver Port Gi9/2"
   !NAME: "Transceiver Port Container Gi9/2", DESCR: "Transceiver Port Container Gi9/2"
   !NAME: "Transceiver Gi9/2",     DESCR: "Transceiver 1000BaseT Gi9/2"


We get daily differences (whole config parts are removed and readded), because rancid believes that something has changed, although this is not the case.
Probably has to do with the expect code.
