[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Dear maintainers,

The attached patch makes the Flymake fringe indicators use faces defined 
by Flymake instead of compilation ones.

This way, themes/users can make those indicators look the way they want 
without affecting the compilation faces.

I made the new faces look the same as before. Existing users should get 
the same results as they did.

All the best,
Protesilaos (or simply "Prot")

Thanks.  Adding Spencer to the discussion.

This change needs to be called out in NEWS.

This and other similar :package-version values in the new faces need
the value of Flymake versions added to
customize-package-emacs-version-alist to be expanded to include
version 1.5.0 of Flymake.
