Bukkit

What is the problem?
Upon startup the config.yml file is changed from what is supposed to be there. Specifically the mysql password field. It seems after i put in password: '****' it changes to just password: ***** removing the apostrophes surrounding the password which is why (im assuming) i can't connect to my database.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. editing config.yml
2. start server
3. config.ynl is changed
