If another program on a Windows host wrote its own messages into the CPU section of the agent output (for example [AGENTGATEWAY] Stopping Agent Gateway), the HW/SW inventory of the host failed with ValueError: not enough values to unpack (expected 2, got 1) and a crash report was created.

Such foreign lines are now ignored, and the CPU data of the host is inventorized as before.
