Severity: wishlist Every time I "make bootstrap", I get a ton of spurious messages (see below). I believe they started showing up with Lars' much appreciated work on improving build speeds. I have tripped myself up over this more than once, and I suspect it will confuse users too. Is there any chance we could do something to silence them? If we can't solve it "properly", how about just a hack? For example, could we add some variable to suppress these messages at this stage of the build process? For completeness, I almost always build --with-native-compilation, in case that matters.
