The real thanks goes to the compiler for warning about this.

Ted, considering the build warnings (some of which are caused by actual bugs)
and build errors that regularly show up in new e2fsprogs releases, have you
considered adding some sort of CI to upstream e2fsprogs?

These days, a very common practice for projects on GitHub is to have a ci.yml
file in .github/workflows/ci.yml that enables testing with GitHub Actions, and
require that it passes before accepting pull requests.  That can include
enforcing a clean build with -Wall -Werror with both gcc and clang; building for
Linux, macOS, and Windows; build and testing on non-x86 architectures; enforcing
that the tests pass with sanitization options like ASAN and UBSAN enabled, etc.
Here's the one I use for fscryptctl which is pretty basic but shows a few things:
https://github.com/google/fscryptctl/blob/master/.github/workflows/ci.yml

Now, presumably e2fsprogs development isn't about to move to GitHub.  However,
it's still possible to just push to a fork of the repo on GitHub after applying
patches, and get all the results from GitHub Actions.

And it looks like e2fsprogs is already being mirrored at
https://github.com/tytso/e2fsprogs.

Ted, would you be interested in a .github/workflows/ci.yml file for e2fsprogs so
that CI results will be available at https://github.com/tytso/e2fsprogs/actions?
