Not a bug, but it would be nice if the documentation could be amended
to indicate that if the character set specified by -fexec-charset is
different from the compiler's default character set, e.g., if it is an
EBCDIC codepage, -Wformat will usually indicate too many parameters
for the format as the compiler scans for % which in my case is changed
to l by the preprocessor. As the fexec-charset option is a
preprocessor option, it would no doubt be difficult to translate the
string back in the compiler proper (but it would be nice if it could
be).

This just sounds like a bug to me. Please open a bug report per
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/ . Thanks.
