It should be blank.  Here are where the splits occur (sorry to 
people who don't use a fixed width font):

IPADDR[0]="192.168.1.10"
      ^ ^^

As you can see, there's nothing but an empty string between the 
second and third delimiters, so it puts an empty string in the 
array.  Otherwise, it'd make parsing CSV files where there may 
or may not be a value for every field almost impossible, since 
you wouldn't know which field had been eliminated.
