The mod metadata parser checks if the file in question is a mod file in a very poor manner: not at all. This is a problem when building the database on a PC, because any file that has .mod is accepted, including those text files generated during Linux kernel compilation.

Based on MikiMod, I made this patch to fix it. Please let me know if it rejects any *valid* mod file. It should now accept the same files that the MikMod plugin accepts.

Looks fine. Invalid .mod files are correctly ignored during database generation and skipped over if they make it into a playlist. Only thing that sticks out to me is that Mikmod is spelled wrong.

It would be nice to get this committed so that the database is a little more stable.
