Which is irritating if you want to be able to blanket say '-Wno-silly-compiler-warning' and not see any of that warning regardless of compiler version. That's why the gcc behaviour is the way it is (i.e. -Wno-such-thingy is neither a warning nor an error if it would be the only warning/error), and if clang doesn't match it that's a shame. thanks -- PMM
