Please note that I have built several updated systems since we
released 8.1, so I've probably applied some changes over the past
months. But I recall very few changes which broke compilation.
And I learned long ago to ignore warnings, unless I want to
contribute to the upstream package (or unless I need to fix an
orphaned package).
