Nevertheless, that's my advice. If you are sensitive to unusual messages during the build, you will catch issues sooner rather than later. I hope you and others _will_ notice unusual messages, because we then can find and react to problems much faster. > Another problem is that such syntax requires as least a file name > and a line number that is not always available.
