No, in fact it doesn't. The spec mandates that the browser and referrer
should be in quotes. Also that any whitespace (not just tabs) is a field
separator, unless it's in an item in quotes. (Hence the browser above is
actually seven fields!)

You can write a LOGFORMAT to deal with this format. Get back to this list if
you need help with that.

Please also file a bug report with your browser vendor.
