Isn't that a cure that is worse than the disease? That patch will slow down the code on his platform, by causing the compiler to insert a run-time check where it now does the check at compile-time (and can therefore omit the call to xalloc_die ()). My own experience is that that particular warning is more trouble than it's worth. Is there some easy way to ask GCC to not generate that warning? _______________________________________________ bug-gnulib mailing list bug-gnulib@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnulib
