pick any given directory in the monolith.  run 'make CC=sparse MODCC=sparse' on
that dir.  notice the five bajillion warnings you get.  fix them.

This is not platform specific.

Comment 2 Shawn Starr 2005-10-04 19:44:56 UTC

/usr/include/stdlib.h:72:56: error: attribute '__transparent_union__': ignoring 
attribute __transparent_union__ 
 
any workarounds for these attribute issues sparse can't deal with?

Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys.  Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.
