Not for me.

What do you expect from stderr that is non-fatal? The only cases I've
had so far resulted in the .error triggering later due to not being able
to determine compiler type.

Also, install depending on the compiler type is wrong. We need to
eliminate the cases where it determines SUBDIR or FILES to fix this. I'd
like to effectively set CC=false during install but can't while those
checks exist.
