Something to do with 96 entries failing to parse correctly. I have a
fix in our fssp.is file that should work (but we have not updated FSSP
recently). DSSP sometimes suffers from the same problems.

Or it could be a file naming problem. Check fssp.i to see what file
name wildcard you are using and check what that finds in the FSSP data
directory.
