What then ? Do you know if/when it's going to be fixed ?

Could there be annoying consequences to this, other than clubbering my 
IDE with warnings ? Or do you know of a workaround (possibly there is 
another object format than ELF) (I'm using KDevelop)?

Is this a 3.1 bug, or does it appear in 2.95.x also ?
