It turned out that the Skara jcheck disallows initial tabs, which makes sense for sane source code formats (java, c++) but is unfortunately an incorrect assumption for makefiles. (I tested that the modification to jcheck detected trailing whitespaces, but it never occurred to me that I needed to modify a line starting with tab to show that this fix would not work...) ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/898
