For the GNU C language they are. For the ISO C language they are not. If there had been a flag such as -ansi or -std=iso-me-harder then the warning would be appropriate. Without such a flag, gcc should shut up and compile the code. So this is a gcc language standard selection bug. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
