It needs a -Wall ;-)

The -q[q[q]] I added cuts down/eliminates the moaning, but you still 
have to -f force the output which doesn't match what Scott is advocating 
if I understand him.

The gcc -Wall is backwards to what we should have, perhaps adding --no* 
options like:
   --nochosen
   --nocpu
   --noarmyboots
to tell dtc that lonely barefoot blobs are OK.
