Roman Bogorodskiy reported a syntax-check failure when using FreeBSD; complaining that: prohibit_empty_first_line tools/libvirt_win_icon_16x16.ico:1: tools/libvirt_win_icon_32x32.ico:1: tools/libvirt_win_icon_48x48.ico:1: tools/libvirt_win_icon_64x64.ico:1: maint.mk: Prohibited empty first line In reality, the first 'line' of that file is NOT empty; but since it is a binary file, awk is not required to handle it gracefully. The simplest solution is to exempt all image files from syntax checks in the first place - after all, we only store them in git because they are inconvenient to regenerate, but they are not our preferred format for making modifications, and syntax check should only cover files that we are likely to modify. * cfg.mk (VC_LIST_ALWAYS_EXCLUDE_REGEX): Exempt images. (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_prohibit_empty_lines_at_EOF): Simplify. (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_trailing_blank): Likewise.
