There's also the following issue, which seem related.
$ cat test.c
void nil_uch(unsigned char *uch) {
*uch = 0;
}
void nil_sch(signed char *sch) {
*sch = 0;
}
int main(void) {
char ch = 0;
nil_uch(&ch);
nil_sch(&ch);
return 0;
}
$ gcc --version

$ gcc -o test test.c
test.c: In function 'main':
test.c:14: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of 'nil_uch' differ
in signedness
test.c:15: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of 'nil_sch' differ
in signedness
I'd expect the warning to be muted in one of the calls, depending on
-f{un}signed-char.
