A note, instead of calling warning multiple times, I think we're
supposed to embed newlines and just call warning once.  Similarly for
error, fatal, and ack I suspect.  My impression is that it helps
things like emacs and other code which wants to parse the compiler's
diagnostics.

I did tweak your web entry a little and install it.  Further improvements
are encouraged.

And if someone wants to improve BUGS & the .texi docs it would be
greatly appreciated.
