The underlying geometry is a conditional line behind an MLCAD HIDE meta. I was able to make it visible in LDPE by inlining empty.dat and un-hiding the condline. Not exactly workflow-friendly…

Perhaps the solution* lies here, from the comments of empty.dat:

Code:

0 // It exceptionally contains forbidden non-LDRAW standard syntax to satisfy MLCad until it is fixed OR a different editor has become the de-facto LDRAW standard.

According to this specification, it is time to stop using this condline, because a different editor has become the de-facto standard.
