Oddly, i'm on it. I'm commiting a libport.h that will have some of these definitions in it. For now I'm only using this on windows (Makefile.vc). I'm really not too clear how all this libport magic works on unix.

It seems that the libport magic is based on autoconf magic which automatically enables building of correctly source files which provide implementations for missing functions.

/me aims for warning free builds...

Hopefully based on correctness rather than excessive casts.

Bob,

I try to consider the appropriateness of the casts before adding them, but I would prefer to hide some warnings that ought to be considered and get "clean" so new warnings get seriously in preference to the current situation (in tools at least) where I've given up on the warnings seem they are legion.

I did try to ignore the situation for a long time in the hope that others would fix it properly!

Best regards,
