>Description:

I submitted this before as bin/7066.
That PR was closed without doing anything to fix the problem.

I just upgraded to 2.2.7 and had to apply the same fix to xlint
for the second time.

There is a bug in gcc 2.7.2.x.
This bug results in the spurious xlint warning above.
No fix for this bug is forthcoming from FSF.
There is a workaround for it in lint1/cgram.y rev 1.2 in 3.0-current.
You need to migrate this file into 2.2-stable.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
	
Migrate lint1/cgram.y rev 1.2 into 2.2-stable.
This time, please don't close this PR until this is done.
Thanks.
