When building GCC, I notice that in a few places the compiler output
is piped to /dev/null. I assume this is because we do not want to
pollute the log files with noise such as warnings...
I'd just like to ask whether this is actually wanted or an old
(good/bad?) habit?
I'm leaning towards advocating to get rid of these piping to /dev/null...
Cheers,
