Re: coccinelle: adjustments for array.cocci?

I too recall that seemingly redundant entries were noticed during
the review and at least back then removing the seemingly redundant
ones caused failures in rewriting.

I am curious if the redundancy can be reconsidered once more.

Do you refer to open issues around source code reformatting
and pretty-printing together with the Coccinelle software here?

Sorry, I do not follow.

If you are asking if I am interested in following bleeding edge
Coccinelle development and use this project as a guinea pig to do so,

I did not ask this.

You mentioned “failures”. - I became curious then if corresponding software
development challenges can be clarified a bit more.

then the answer is no.

Such feedback is reasonable.

I'd rather see us instead staying on the trailing edge ;-)
to make sure that we use common denominator features that are known
to be available in all widely deployed and perhaps a bit dated versions
that come with popular distros.

I find that I am proposing script adjustments within the basic feature set
for the semantic patch language here.
Further fine-tuning will become possible, won't it?
