Description

There are close to 600 of these remarks in recent builds with aCC 6 but only 21 in the library headers or sources:

$    log=hpux-11.31-ia64-acc-6.16-12D-648508-log.gz; \
     gunzip -c $log | grep -e "remark #4271-D" | wc -l \
  && gunzip -c $log | grep -e "(TOPDIR)/src/.*\.cpp\", .* remark #4271-D" \
                           -e "(TOPDIR)/include/.* remark #4271-D" | wc -l
699
21

Here's a list of those in the library that should be silenced for 4.2.1:
