So, I don’t find value in the warning.  We should engineer a nice sane default and be proud of it.  Two people call cc1 without using the driver.  You, and I.  What value do you find in the warning?  If none, I’d just drop it.

It is like a warning, “we are compiling C code”.  This is true, but what value is it?

Ok with or without the warning.
