I have been trying to improve the quickfix facilities
obtainable from gcc and I have modified it thusly:

But when I get results like:
/home/hgs/fsv/rawimage.c:97: multiple definition of `image_check_is_png'
image.o:/home/hgs/fsv/image.c:97: first defined here
vim tries to pickup a file called image.o:/home/hgs/fsv/image.c
for the second line (:cn) which clearly doesn't exist.
I have tried the following forms of this second line in order to modify
what is detected before the %f :-
\%Z%*\\s:%f:%l:\ first\ defined\ here,
\%Z%.%#:%f:%l:\ first\ defined\ here,
\%Z%*[^:]:%f:%l:\ first\ defined\ here,
\%Z%m:%f:%l:\ first\ defined\ here,
\%Z%*f:%f:%l:\ first\ defined\ here,
The latter of which complains about 2 %f symbols in the line, despite the
first having a * in it.
How do I NOT pickup the object file before the ":%f:\ first\ defined\ here"?
