> Too many renames; must be X source!

from output of p9p `acid -q', ran on basically any GNU software.

the offending code:
$PLAN9/src/cmd/acid/util.c:/must.be.X.source
                if(renamed > 5 && !quiet) {
                        print("Too many renames; must be X source!\n");

10 years ago the gcc manual was bigger than kenc source.

take your pick. learn about a neat compiler or read the gcc manual.

I'm not sure if I should take it as a joke. You can never know what's going
to be the next move of our saviors the Fat Software Foundation.

speaking of 'free':

"This is the license of the original implementation of the JSON data
interchange format. This license uses the Expat license as a base, but
adds a clause mandating: “The Software shall be used for Good, not
Evil.” This is a restriction on usage and thus conflicts with freedom
0. The restriction might be unenforcible, but we cannot presume that.
Thus, the license is nonfree."

I don't see the problem. If I wanted to implement human beings, physical
laws, an universe and an operating system inside a missing text editor
inside a Lisp interpreter on a C compiler I'm pretty sure I would add 1200
options.

Ah! I think I know why compile binaries with gcc are so slow. Because
they first found the answer: GNU Public Licence. Then they said: here is
the answer! Uh! THAT??? But answer to what? Hence now gcc embeds code to
find the question the GPL is the answer for.
