Hi,
in this simple documentation PR, Tom noticed that we have a (very long
standing) inconsistency between the default value of -fmessage-length
for C++ as documented and as implemented: in fact it's 0 in
cxx-pretty-print.c, like all the other front-ends. At the time of the PR
people briefly envisage changing the default but the discussion didn't
go anywhere, I think we can as well do the below, for the time being at
least, remove the inconsistency.
Ok?
Thanks,
Paolo.
