That's good enough for me. I don't care much about the verbosity.
My problem is: I've got 20,000 mangled names, and they demangle
to 250 megabytes of text, and I want to find real bugs like the
"operator< <" versus "operator <<" bug.
It's a big needle-in-haystack problem. I'm messing around with
a Perl script that helps sort out the haystack. After "monotone",
I'd like to run it on mangled names from cygwin and mozilla and
open-office too.
