common C idiom.

Let's not blame Microsoft for that (there are worse things to blame them for) - 
it's a reasonable warning at level 4, considering that it's not easy for the 
compiler to distinguish this idiom from a programmer's mistake. (And the 
compiler is for C++ anyway.)

should be released asap.

I'm happy with that - warnings have never been a big problem, as one can easily 
disable them when compiling the bison-generated files.
