This depends on what we mean by "actionable". I'm not sure I'd consider the current -Wcompat warnings to be "non-actionable". For instance, `aeson-0.11` happens to be free of -Wall -Wcompat -Wnoncanonical-monad-instances -Wnoncanonical-monadfail-instances warnings, which didn't require any CPP, see e.g. - https://github.com/bos/aeson/pull/337/files - https://github.com/bos/aeson/pull/338/files Also, as an example for a larger code-base, {Cabal,cabal-install} HEAD in Git aspire to be warning-free as well[1]; so depending on your definition, -Wcompat *is* actionable. > -Wcompat would be restricted to a few manual local builds to see where > things are heading.
