Hi Frank,

    If all programs that support caret output would recognize a common
    environment variable (say "NO_CARET_OUTPUT"), 

Thanks for the suggestion.  Can you please write the gcc developers to
get their reaction, first?  I doubt that rms would impose this behavior
on them against their wishes, and will surely want to know their views
in any case.

Akim and Paul and others: what do you actually think of the idea?
(Personally, I find it pretty reasonable, though the var name would need
some thinking.)

Best,
Karl
