Ah, I can't find the exact corresponding patch series in the email. So I will just comment from the git change. =========quote=========== commit ae7fd3b06c225fd8faf67c3e20db07b64eca7fc3 don't output value of anonymous symbol's pointer The value of this pointer is of no use unless you're using a debugger (or just to see if two things are identical or not) and it's presence produces noise when comparing the output of two runs for testing. Change this by issuing it only if 'verbose' is set. diff --git a/linearize.c b/linearize.c index 42d1680..b69f838 100644 --- a/linearize.c +++ b/linearize.c @@ -120,7 +120,7 @@ const char *show_pseudo(pseudo_t pseudo) break; } expr = sym->initializer; - snprintf(buf, 64, "<anon symbol:%p>", sym); + snprintf(buf, 64, "<anon symbol:%p>", verbose ? sym : NULL); ======================================================= Very trivial feed back: I think it is better not print out the %p for NULL. Just skip the %p if not verbose was set. BTW, I understand you are reluctant to make trivial change to very old series of branch. That make sense. In that case, I can make a topic branch to track the feedback and fix up as incremental change. Then integrate that branch when all the feedback settle down. I don't mind writing some feedback patches myself if you prefer.
