Me too. However, the warning, betraying the use of mkpackage, came in
handy once: it once showed that GAR calls mkpackage where it doesn't
really need to. When I'm building larger packages, I always need to
wait for GAR just to print the list of built files. It turns out that
GAR makes expensive calls to mkpackage just to print the file names.
