I just looked through a really old build log I have and there was one
compile warning in locate:
===> usr.bin/locate/code
cc -O -pipe
-I/usr/home/grehan/freebsd/dev/src/usr.bin/locate/code/../locate -
c /usr/home/grehan/freebsd/dev/src/usr.bin/locate/code/locate.code.c
/usr/home/grehan/freebsd/dev/src/usr.bin/locate/code/locate.code.c: In
function
`main':
/usr/home/grehan/freebsd/dev/src/usr.bin/locate/code/locate.code.c:227:
warning:
comparison is always false due to limited range of data type
.. though that line of code doesn't look like it would cause locate to
bomb out all the time:
/* print umlauts in file names */
if (*cp < ASCII_MIN ||
*cp > ASCII_MAX) {
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Peter.
