gcc test.c:

Ok, but what about this:

unsigned char *color_filter() ;

/* 100 lines of code */

unsigned char *ptr = colour_filter () ;


WARN 'line 203': identifier 'colour_filter' not found, using closest
match 'color_filter' instead.


This would be useful.

gcc-6.0 will add the `--dwim' command line option.
gcc-6.1 will add the `--dwishm' command line option

But probably not. ;-)
