Hi Anand,

The implementation looks correct. It only adds newlines between the keys:

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/75ebc3cf1dc1365be5a05018fc8e5409c66025cb/nixos/modules/services/networking/ssh/sshd.nix#L55

Are you sure your string doesn't contain a newline? Maybe your text
editor added a newline when it wrapped the string.
