I'm not personally convinced that enabling --inline-suppr is the right way to 
proceed.

Back when you sent the email I briefly talked to Daniel (original upstream dev) 
about including suppressed messages in the xml output (<error suppressed=true 
...>) and he was in general okay with the idea. The proposal never made its 
way into a ticket and then I disappeared. I haven't checked the latest 
developments, but I guess nobody has written the necessary code.

I'm willing to enable inline suppressions as long as they are included in the 
xml output.

Cheers,
