From the article:

And even if it were, it's a matter of adding -Wno-misleading-indentation to make builds green again. Not a big deal. And besides, it's likely that fixing those warnings could be done mechanically. (and it's hardly true that every project that ships with -Werror has such misleading indentation somewhere in its code)

How does that help the person who is building the release you shipped six months ago with a new compiler?
