My understanding was that at some place there is a if/else

        if (supported counters)
                fprintf_something with N fields, all filled in
        else
                fprintf_empty_fields with != N fields

So I think this is not about using things like 'a,b,,,,,,' but about
using different number of commas (fields) for supported/unsupported
counters, no?
