New submission from Devyn Johnson: When compiling Python3.5.1 on Ubuntu 15.10 (64-bit), I see three "incompatible pointer type" warnings (copy-pasted below). I understand that they can be ignored. However, from my experience with programming (in C STD-2011), "weird bugs" and other odd behavior disappears when warnings like this are fixed.
Environment flags (such as CFLAGS) and the configure settings do not appear to influence that warning (i.e. my settings are irrelevant to this bug report). I hope that this bug report is found to be helpful. Also, thank you Python-developers for making and maintaining Python as open-source software.
