It reduces the value of "make -i" significantly, as it creates lots of false
compile errors. If you think that is not a problem, fine with me. I can (and do)
filter the resulting errors from my auto-build scripts by now . That may cause
the scripts it to miss some real errors, but after all I can only do so much.
And it does seeem as if no one else cares, or maybe I am the only one seeing
the problem, so I guess you are right.
