Re: -Wformat and the like (was: gdb-7.0 on osx)

[Tobias Hahn <tobias.hahn@ableton.com>]

By the way: Why do the makefiles include -Wformat, -Wformat-nonliteral  
and -Werror? I agree that this would be a best pratice if the code  
were clean, but with literally thousands of these kinds of errors it  
just gives me as a user a hard time trying to get a build.

Right now, I am trying find the correct place to patch the Makefiles  
since it adds -Wformat-nonliteral explicitely, overriding my -Wno- 
format-nonliteral, which breaks a ton of stuff.

Am I the only one having these problems? Are there some magic secret  
configure options to get "configure && make" to produce a build?

I am using the daily snapshot gdb-7.0.50.20091009.

Best, Tobias
