After adding a field to Splunk Add-on for Unix and Linux - interfaces.sh, why am I now seeing the headers in my search results?

I needed the results of dropped packets on an interface, so I modified the default interfaces.sh script to include those fields. I tested deploying to a small number of dev hosts and everything looked fine.

When I moved it to a bigger set of servers this morning, I started seeing the header in the search results. Since Splunk is now passing that and other *nix source types to "|multikv" by default, what could be going on here? Not sure where to look for this.
