CUDA Visual Profile on linux error when reading csv with # lines.

When using the CUDA Visual Profiler 1.0.11 on a program, it will generate temp_cuda_profiler_0.csv while running. The file starts out with these lines:

CUDA_PROFILE_LOG_VERSION 1.3

CUDA_PROFILE_CSV 1

timestamp,method,gputime,cputime,occupancy
44867.000,memcopy,1814.816,6556.000

When finished running I get the error:

Error -94 in reading profiler output. Minimum expected columns (method,gputime,cputime,occupancy) not found in profiler output file.

If I make a copy of the temp_cuda_profiler_0.csv file while the profiler runs, and then later try to import it, I get the same error.

If I remove the lines:

CUDA_PROFILE_LOG_VERSION 1.3

CUDA_PROFILE_CSV 1

it imports it correctly.
