As of 2.6.20-rc2-git2 we had 137 warnings in MIPS specific code of a total of 218 for the kernel and 44 for modules - that's a insane 52%. And people happily added more crappy code because they didn't not even _notice_ the warnings some of which indeed were bugs. Compare to 2.6.23 - 13 warnings for MIPS specific code of a total of 48 warnings and another 23 warnings for all the modules. For a codebase which overall had grown by half a million lines between those releases. Ralf
