Mmm, but at the moment it's entirely fine to pass both compilers the same flags, and moreover we actually pass all these flags to the compiler without checking if it's gcc or not; we just ask if the compiler will run OK with the flag passed. (I'm not even sure how you'd determine whether your compiler was gcc or clang or gcc-llvm or whatever...) > I'd also like to handle flags for sparse checker the same way. I agree that those bits of configure could be cleaner. -- PMM
