I didn't say bug for bug, just not generate stupid errors like the ffs one.

That apparently means you won't support clang then, because it's not intended to be (or ever going to be) fully bug-for-bug "compatible" with GCC. In this case, at least, clang is reporting legitimate issues which should be fixed, even if folks continue to build lsof with GCC from now until the end of days.

To echo a word someone else just used, I'm baffled as to why you would hold such a position.
