Yeah, I'm on with them. :-) I did a patch to get rid of several of the
warnings a few days back (that was applied), though I'm a little tied for
time at the moment so haven't managed to hunt down the many that remain.
The worst set of them is in jit_emit.h. They are mostly due to things
like:-
somechar = 0xDD;
Where somechar is a char. When cl sees 0xDD it says "aha, it's a const
int", whereas gcc either sees them as a "const char" or just doesn't throw
warnings about the lack of an explicit cast.
Thanks,
Jonathan
