Trying to run a recent glibc testsuite (from glibc trunk) results in testsuite errors because the compiler is overriding the -Wno-format option on the command line. Running the compiler with -v shows that it is appending an additional -Wformat after the user option and that there is no obvious way to override this behaviour. This is a bug. #include <stdio.h> int f() { int n; return scanf ("%llllld", &n); } The above testcase should compile when compiled with -Wall -Werror -Wno-format, but instead generates errors for the unrecognized format specifier (note that this is a deliberate part of the test). gcc -v -Wall -Werror -Wno-format /tmp/test.c -c -o /tmp/test.o Using built-in specs.
