surpress default parameters in error messages ?

[Kai Schuetz]

I use the STL a lot, and it works fine, besides the error messages.

My proposal:

To make error messages more readable it would be useful to supress the
output of default template parameters (perhaps with a -W... flag).

This would make out of

CFGAlgorithms.cc:332: warning: passing `const
vector<Symbol,__default_alloc_template<false,0> >' as `this' argument of
`class Symbol * vector<Symbol,__default_alloc_template<false,0>
>::erase(class Symbol *, class Symbol *)' discards const

the following:

CFGAlgorithms.cc:332: warning: passing `const vector<Symbol>' as `this'
argument of `class Symbol * vector<Symbol>::erase(class Symbol *, class
Symbol *)' discards const

Much easier to read, isn't it ???
