-    <p>The compiler emitted two warnings. The <c>INFO</c> warning refers
-    to the function <c>non_opt_eq/2</c> as a callee, indicating that any
-    function that call <c>non_opt_eq/2</c> cannot make delayed sub binary

-    The second warning (that happens to refer to the same line) refers to

-    <p>The compiler gives a warning for the following code fragment:</p>
-
-  <code type="erl"><![CDATA[
-match_body([0|_], <<H,_/binary>>) ->

-
-    <p>The warning means that <em>if</em> there is a call to <c>match_body/2</c>
-    (from another clause in <c>match_body/2</c> or another function), the
-    delayed sub binary optimization will not be possible. More warnings will
-    occur for any place where a sub binary is matched out at the end of and
-    passed as the second argument to <c>match_body/2</c>, for example:</p>
