If I follow what Simon was saying yesterday, the whole message framing
is wrong.  The problem isn't that gcc 9.2 is showing a warning, the
problem is that gcc 9.2 is showing that we have a problem (in terms of
what can/can't happen in real life networking terms), which you're
correcting.  Simon, can you please suggest a commit message here if
you're still not quite happy, as you understand the underlying problem
well it seems.  Thanks!
