BTW, you can get extra warnings by building with the W=[123] option to
the Makefile (e.g., 'make W=1').

$ make help
[...]
  make W=n   [targets] Enable extra gcc checks, n=1,2,3 where
		1: warnings which may be relevant and do not occur too often
		2: warnings which occur quite often but may still be relevant
		3: more obscure warnings, can most likely be ignored
		Multiple levels can be combined with W=12 or W=123
