Re: plist-check not reporting orphaned files present in a @comment

I would like to confirm, plist-check is correct for make check-plist (or check-orphans), right?

It is run by Mk/Scripts/check-stagedir.sh, and from looking at it's contents, it appears that some patterns are not reported as orphans.
In the function check_orphans_from_plist(), they are lined up as a patterns of case.
It doesn't match the pattern, does it?

The following is just a quote attached.
Regards.
