Yes, I raised it, but I'm sure others have wanted the same feature before me. > I wasn't completely sure about the case of warnings in the presence > of -Werror. ... we print a note stating > warnings are treated as errors > > and then continue to prepend them with 'warning: '. I see that while > old GCC versions do exactly that, newer ones changed the prefix to be > 'error: ' instead. I agree with your choice. When someone reports things like gnulib/fnmatch_loop.c:1087: error: signed and unsigned type in conditional expression and forgets to say that he was using -Werror, I get severely confused when seeing an "error" message about a harmless code. Thanks for implementing this! Bruno
