Basically, you added a bunch of ------ separators. That's fine with me. 
It does have some impact for aide post-processing scripts (like the 
debian package). I'll see how much the maintainers of such scripts will 
complain. :-)

That should have happened already. I'll roll an rc3 in a minute. That 
should look better for your release. :-)

The whole usability of I/ANF/ARF is still very debatable. See the 
mailing list archives. Since these are new versions, I might just stick 
a note someplace saying it is work in progress.. It shouldn't delay the 
release of aide 0.11.
