FWIW, the difference turned out to be LANG=C.UTF-8 in Fedora (vs LANG=C or
LANG=en_US.UTF-8), and the warning analysis being done in the self-tests
I added got unlucky when I tried to avoid setting "LANG". (i.e. I didn't
want to depend on matching English output, and used the trailing "'" in
the function name matcher -- which is a "`" under C.UTF-8.)

This has been fixed now -- I just got fantastically unlucky, it seems,
as literally only Linus appears to have been building with LANG=C.UTF-8.
(None of the other build bots warned about this for the weeks it's been
in -next). :(
