That's nothing new, but I'm restoring : compatibility and functionailty, not removing it. Don't you have any ability to judge that this might be a bad thing? So far the voting I solicited is 100% in favor of getting rid of what you did... Usually that implies it is a bad commit... : I found src/Makefile.inc1 r134903 / rev 1.444 very noisy, but lived with : it. I don't care that -s now implies -Q, except that it still leaves so : much "noise" like r134903 / rev 1.444 and other output. : [Why the log message is about 'Unanimous Consent' and not verbosity?] Because I messed up on the commit. I also talked to a lot of people before making the commit, socialized the issue and got buy in from ru@ before making the change. : I wonder what % build speed improvement quieting that behind 'make -s' : would give? I should measure it. I believe that it won't be that much since the output is 1/10th the size of the latest commit... Warner
