I have entries like
machine foo login bar password zot
When searching for the smtp or imap passwords on host foo, I'm not
getting anything. .netrc should return this as a match, even though
there's no port number there.

That's very likely my fault and I will look at it later today.

I verified it works correctly just now, so I think it's a data issue.

I think I fixed *a problem*: if you had a missing token somewhere so it
saw "machine" as a data value. Give it a try and if it still fails,
send a minimal netrc and a `auth-source-search' call I can check.
My change disallows "machine" as a data token. I think that's
reasonable, but perhaps I should try harder to catch that case?

Ideally, all values should be possible. If somebody has a server called
"machine", then it would be confusing for that not to work. And that's
perhaps more likely than having a password called "password", which was
reported as a bug before the rewrite. :-)

I refuse empty values on moral grounds :)

I can try harder to make it work. I really didn't imagine it would be a
problem.
