Thanks for the heads-up. From my perspective, we can treat Apple cc like MSVC, xlc, Sun cc, clang on Windows, and the other vendor compilers. Namely, quickly glance over the build log to see whether there are warnings that look relevant and dangerous, and other than that ignore the warnings. This holds for both lib/ and tests/. Reminder: We never promised a warning-free build, neither of lib/ nor tests/. The difference between lib/ and tests/ is that code in lib/ goes into the binaries delivered by the packages, and therefore if a package maintainer makes an effort to silence a warning, we will consider their patch. Whereas for tests, as I said, it is too much of an effort/cost to do so. Bruno
