The ultimate goal of the "make quieter" stuff is to allow us to see important warnings+errors when they happen. Cleaning up unimportant/easy-to-fix warnings is great for that, as is cleaning up routine messages. (but I still don't like the idea of running make -s because then when an error occurs, you might not know offhand exactly where the error occurred -- seeing the acutal command-line messages is a great "first step" in narrowing down the problem) > (I assume its usage is make doc QUIET_BUILD=1) At this point you know more about make than I do, so I'm happy to trust your assumption.
