Hi Bjarni,

This feedback is not as helpful as it could be.  Do you know if:

1) Upgrading gnulib is, by itself, sufficient to fix the problem?

And if it isn't,

2) Which warning-suppression fix is?

And moreover, are _both_ a gnulib upgrade and a warning-suppression fix
required?

As Ingo has suggested, we don't want to fire blindly when fixing compiler
warnings.  It is not sufficient to address them; we must also _understand_
them.

The above information would expedite the resolution of this bug.  Failing
that, it's going to require more time and experimentation on my part.
