Please, either grep the logfiles for the gcc warnings w/ FEATURES="stricter" only, or force LC_ALL=C for grep. 

grep performance sucks big time w/ UTF-8 locales (Bug 93443) and this checks takes over a minute on large log files (~1MB+) here.

Huh? I'm not; I don't even care, just nuke or tweak the check to not waste time. I guess you've misunderstood what I'm saying here, 'poor programming practices' is what the check spits out, not me...

you sure do like to whine ... upgrade your computer to a quad core, that'll make it run faster i bet
