    Had an extra ] at the end of the third if statement. This should fix it for you.

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
  if {[class match [HTTP::header User-Agent] contains abcd_useragents] } {
    if {[HTTP::cookie MobileOptOut] eq 1} { return }
    if {[URI::query [HTTP::uri] MobileOptOut] eq 1} { return }
    switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::path]] {
      "*.jpg" -
      "*.gif" -
      "*.png" -
      "*.bmp" -
      "*.ico" { return }
    }
    HTTP::redirect "http://m.xyzdomain.com[HTTP::uri]"
  }
}

Was missing a opening brace at the end of the first if statement. You will need to test it though to make sure it meets your needs. You may want to consider lowercasing the HTTP::path to ensure it matches the strings.
