> But "const char *" isn't a qualified version of "char *"
Ahhh. Now I see your point. Amazingly enough, the C standard does not, under any
circumstances, permit objects (including the targets of pointers) to be
qualifier promoted---only pointers themselves are so provided for.
While that may be _phenomenally_ stupid, I acknoledge that it is, in fact, a
direct interpretation of the standard. Accordingly, I withdraw my objection.
Since the behavior is literally non-compliant with the standard, it is perfectly
reasonable for the compiler to warn about it.
Thank you for the enlightenment.
