That's a gnulib test which might be extended, but in their codebase,
not ours. There are few approaches that just emerged on my mind.
Since we want this to be enforced in .h files as well, we either have
to modify bracket-spacing.pl to skip .h files and feed those to it or
create another make target for this. The most readable and
straight-forward one is probably:
empty-lines-check:
$(AM_V_GEN)files=`$(VC_LIST) | grep '\.[hc]$$'`; \
grep -nH -m1 '^$$' $$files | grep ':1:$$' && \
{ echo '$(ME): prohibited empty first line' 1>&2; \
exit 1; }
the '-m1' is there to speed it up, unfortunately grep doesn't have a
parameter to scan only X lines of each file. We can use way more
tools than this and make it better, I just don't have a preference.
Can you give me a hint what would be the best to use from e.g. awk,
perl, just shell? Or whether we want to split this into
self-contained checking script like bracket-spacing.pl?

Pushed it without the follow up for now. Thanks for the review.
