NDOS >= 10000 Breaks Doscar Formatting

When using VASP 6.2.0, setting NDOS = 10000 leads to the following lines in the doscar file:

14 14 1 0
0.1266643E+02 0.6256425E-09 0.7406997E-09 0.3826607E-09 0.5000000E-15
1.000000000000000E-004
CAR
unknown system
14.36230513 -35.2677775710000 4.07619041 1.00000000

I highlighted the line where the bug is located. Thus parsing ndos from the doscar file can no longer be done by splitting the line up by whitespace breaks.

Yes, but knowing the format of the columns (2F16.8,I5,2F16.8, see main.F) should be helpful for parsing.
