    GCC issues the following warning when compiling with -Wall for
  example:

  "Warning: suggest parentheses around assignment used as truth value"

    AFAIK it is done for making sure the programmer intended to do
  an assignment and dit not accidently write `=' instead of `=='.

    I don't know if i like it that much; at least it doesn't hurt
  (too much, IMHO it hurts readability a little) and similar changes
  were applied before. So i wouldn't object now.
