I will try to remove a few levels of negation from the sentence ;)

Yeah, code that isn't every compiled, so the build will not flag it. I didn't 
investigate all existing occurrences of BPTR.

Yeah, seems we do not run the android build with -Werror:

PS2, Line 2531:             sent = send(man->connection.sd_cli, CBSTR(buf), 
len, MSG_NOSIGNAL);
> Should this be `CBPTR` (not `CBSTR`)?
Windows wants a const char*, with CBPTR we get a warning
"pointer targets in passing argument 2 of ‘send’ differ in signedness (expected 
‘const char *’ but argument is of type ‘const uint8_t *’)" in MinGW build. 
Using CBSTR let's us avoid using a cast.
