Patrick, Thank you for your report and the patch. We will consider it.
Sean, Yes, it will be helpful if there are less warnings on CDash. And I would like everyone to know that we have been working on cleaning up the code to reduce the number of warnings in HDF5. Hopefully, this will be noticeable in the next maintenance release. Unfortunately, we will not be able to remove all warnings for all compilers. If there are volunteers to work with us on the warnings, please contact me. Thank you!
