I am strongly in favour of supporting 8.0 warning level 4.
Yes, the OP talked about 7.1 though.
FWIW, both are silenced now.

I'll have a look this morning and see if it also emits warning for constant if expressions etc (I'm pretty sure 7.1 does).
Version 8.0 appeared a little smarter about the possible usage of an uninitialized variable (though I'm a suspicious guy and wouldn't be surprised to know that they have just special-cased it during their internal tests with boost code) but warned about constant conditional expressions anyway (something that Borland users have probably learned to turn a blind eye to). The "fix" is in the head only. Shout out very very loud if you want it in the RC_1_34_0 branch too :-) -- [ Gennaro Prota, C++ developer for hire ]
