Yes, that tripling the size of output in a cascade of diagnostics is a bad idea. Possibly disable them by default after the first few errors (or a larger number of warnings) if enabled by default (not explicitly) up to then? Also, work with the GNU Coding Standards maintainers on any conventions for caret diagnostics in GNU software. -- Joseph S. Myers jos...@codesourcery.com
