I agree.  I'd be happy to submit a patch, but I don't actually use the
tftp support (as of a few minutes ago I no longer even build it).  I
could re-enable it and do a build to make sure the compiler warning
goes away, but I don't really have anything setup for testing it.  It
does look like there is some sort of autotest that includes tftp...
