Patch to fix problem

As of commit b2d6ee1e547a, "visudo -c -q" prints "parsed OK" for each file that it checks.  This is annoying because it causes some scripts written assuming no output with the -q flag to print output.  This can be fixed with the attached patch.

Oops, wrong variable name for the first patch.  Correct version attached.

Thanks, this will be fixed in sudo 1.8.8.  The fix is present in the second beta release of sudo 1.8.8, available now.
