The idea is that security warnings are about situations that are dange

This patch is not good, because the warning "zero-length format string"
exists at least since GCC 3.1, however
'#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wfo
With gcc-4.4.5 patched with defaults-format-security.patch, coreutils emit
test-xvasprintf.c: In function 'test_xasprintf':
test-xvasprintf.c:98: warning: format not a string literal and no format
arguments
There is a gnulib-tests/Makefile hack preventing the warning in case coreutils
is
compile
