Lint complains if first line of Portfile is modeline

[rhwood@…]

For port gtk2, lint produces the following:

--->  Verifying Portfile for gtk2
Warning: Line 1 is missing RCS tag ($Id$)
--->  0 errors and 1 warnings found.

The first line of the port is a modeline.

Perhaps lint should be changed to recognize that if the 1st line is a modeline that the first three lines of the portfile should be:

modeline an empty line for readability the RCS tag

In addition, can lint recognize that the modeline is/or is not the standard modeline?

[rhwood@…]

modeline an empty line for readability the RCS tag

should read:

modeline
an empty line for readability
RCS tag

[milosh@…]

Are modeline and RCS tags supposed to be readable by humans? I don't think they need to stand out this much and hence don't need an empty line between them.

port lint does recognize the modeline gunk, it just doesn't like the newline between it and RCS... However, the error seems to be wrong, as it should be "Line 2 is missing RCS tag".

Fixed, r32480.
