So I think this one is surmountable. We linked -Wformat into optimization before, then removed the link. Although we could resurrect the status_warning function which could set a status variable if it would warn rather than emitting the warning (and again save and restore all the variable controlling format warnings), it's not clear this is very desirable. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21982
