--- Comment #5 from David Brown <david at westcontrol dot com> --- I agree that warnings to match something like the MISRA coding standards would be best done as a plugin. But I believe that in this case, warning on octal literals would be quite a small addition to the main gcc code. I am not familiar enough with the gcc source code to implement it myself (like many people, I blame lack of time) - I therefore registered this enhancement request in the hope that someone was /is/ familiar with this part of gcc would be able to make the change quickly and easily.
