 Hi,
 
 of cause the /etc/mk.conf version will work too, but that would disabled 
 lint for every compilation that uses make "silently".
 I'm not shure if that won't surprise some of my college if they are 
 building something else on that server.
 So I prefere disabling just for building the sources.
 
 Best regards
