:>Yes, that's the ultimate goal.. :-) Actually, -Wall and then some,
:>if possible. Personally speaking, I can't live without -Wall in
:>my own code; the compiler's a lot better than me at finding certain
:>kinds of simple bugs (eg, printf() with missing arguments, etc).

:-Wall is feeble compared with the warnings already enabled for the
:kernel. E.g., it doesn't cover printf() with missing args -- -Wformat
:covers that.

:Bruce
It makes the cc line shorter. We can then get rid of all the -W's that
-Wall does include.
