Now that i'm thinking of it, this will probably not fix the warning. It will 
guarantee that libgomp works correctly at runtime by ensuring that mingw-w64 
printf implementation is used, but compile-time format check is determined by 
the printf format attribute of the function, and i doubt that gcc is smart 
enough to figure out that the implementation is gnu-compatible. So (C) will 
have to be combined with (A) for the warning to go away.
