Style question on choosing shell variable names to use with the manywarnings module

2014-05-10 Thread James Youngman
Hi, I'm using gnulib's manywarnings module in findutils. I have an --enable-compiler-warning configure option which turns on the warnings. Since most people won't use this option, I call gl_MANYWARN_ALL_GCC unconditionally to help discover systems on which this doesn't work (none found yet!).
