problem in nessus -qp output
this maybe better go to the developer mailing list, but...

there seems to be a minor hassle with nessus -qp output.

if any of the plug properties string contains pipe characters (``|'')
they are neither escaped nor otherwised ``banned'', and end up into the
final record dump, thus breaking the non-fixed-size field mapping.

this is the case with plug id 10126, namely in_fingerd.nasl:

name["english"] = "in.fingerd |command@host bug";
name["francais"] = "in.fingerd |command@host bug";
