It's not dependent on the optimization level for C/C++ and I don't quite see why would it be dependent on the target. It's just that the Fortran FE with -O optimizes a switch by removing the first case. I don't know Fortran to judge whether the warning could be useful there. > Can we document what a programmer needs to do to suppress the warning?

You don't want the compiler to warn on switch(x) { found = 1; case 1: ... ? Marek
