This has to be done very careful.  Changing code to silence the compiler
can be dangerous, sometimes the warnings actually have a meaning.  Sometime
very subtle...  Making the warning go away could lead to a hidden bug.

Also keep in mind that the code not only runs on one architecture, so
double check on at least a 64bit architecture and little/big endian
machine to make _sure_ you don't introduce or hide a bug.
