Softwipe not compiling tool correctly?!

Hey there!

Using this commit of a tool called EPIK, I run into compilation errors, as I described in this issue. These cause the compilation to fail.

However, when compiling with softwipe, none of them are reported, and instead I get a perfect

  Number of level 3 warnings (must be fixed): 0/61743
  Number of level 2 warnings (should be fixed): 0/61743
  Number of level 1 warnings (could be fixed): 0/61743

which seems weird to me. I think that softwipe is not compiling EPIK correctly. Hence, I am not sure that I can trust the reported score :-(

Cheers
Lucas

Hm, quick thought: I compiled with GCC, and got the missing header errors as described in the issue that I linked. Softwipe uses clang instead. Maybe clang somehow just pulls in those headers anyway, so that the compilation does not fail? That would kind of be bad as well, as that's clearly an error that should be reported by softwipe ;-)
