Thanks for asking about this. I have been seeing it, too, but have been procrastinating figuring out what to do about it :)

I would also appreciate a way of silencing the warning, but at least since it isn't a compile warning it doesn't "get treated as error."

The NEXT_ROOT method of specifying an SDK is, as you might guess, a hangover from the NeXT days, and has been replaced in more recent versions of gcc with the more manageable -syslibroot flag. But for 2.0 the ld linker for gcc3.3 still requires NEXT_ROOT, so we have to pass both. The warning is innocuous and can be ignored for gcc 3.3, and is absent in gcc 4.0.


We're going to have to stay on GCC 3.3 for a while. Would it be possible for you to give us a way to selectively silence that warning? In a project with 100 targets this warning generates up to 300 extra lines in the parsed build output pane... We would have to patch nightly build scripts to ignore the warning, et.c., et.c...


It seems to be a warning that doesn't provide much value for Xcode end users, as we don't set these variables explicitly, but only implicitly via higher level GUI controls. But perhaps you added it for users with custom build systems who doesn't set this these variables via Xcode? Was NEXT_ROOT ever documented and supported to be used by anyone but you?
