What I meant with "just set -Wno-error=stringop-overread on gcc12 for
dir.(o|s|sp)?" was that you can set this per-file:

	dir.sp dir.s dir.o: EXTRA_CPPFLAGS += -Wno-error=stringop-overread

Ditto for the warning suppression in 2/2, we don't currently have any
other warnings like this, but we can suppress them more narrowly.
