The reason is that repoman joins together lines that have backslash line continuations. In this case, the line number refers to the first line. Maybe it's better if repoman reports a range of line numbers in this case, since repoman the specific line within that range is unknown.
repoman support has been removed per bug 835013. Please file a new bug (or, I suppose, reopen this one) if you feel this check is still applicable to pkgcheck and doesn't already exist.
