Do you mean that the file should end with *two* newline characters?

Note that, in a Unix environment, a text file is by definition a
sequence of LF-terminated lines of text. This implies that a non-empty
file that does not end with an LF character is not a valid text file.

The manual does mention that users tables are “regular text files”. If
the user account creation fails to parse an invalid text file, I would
not consider it a bug.
