+" usually has several lines and several references to source code mostly
+" within one or two lines (see sample warning below).  The easiest way
+" not to mess up file name detection and not to jump to all positions is
+" to add something like
+"	-linelen 500 +boundscompacterrormessages
+" to your .splintrc and 'set cmdheight=4' or more.

+"foo.c:1006:12: Clauses exit with var referencing local storage in one
+"		       case, fresh storage in other case
+"   foo.c:1003:2: Fresh storage var allocated
+"
+" sample warning (bounds checking):
+"
+"bounds.c: (in function updateEnv)
+"bounds.c:10:5: Possible out-of-bounds store:
+"    strcpy(str, tmp)
+"    Unable to resolve constraint:
+"    requires maxSet(str @ bounds.c:10:13) >= maxRead(getenv("MYENV") @
+"    bounds.c:6:9)
+"     needed to satisfy precondition:
+"    requires maxSet(str @ bounds.c:10:13) >= maxRead(tmp @ bounds.c:10:18)
+"     derived from strcpy precondition: requires maxSet(<parameter 1>) >=
+"    maxRead(<parameter 2>)
+"  A memory write may write to an address beyond the allocated buffer. (Use
+"  -boundswrite to inhibit warning)
