The state of these patches [2] is in some sort of limbo until I get a patch in to disable the warning from W=1 (keep in mind GCC doesn't even support this specific warning). I want to make the patch but am seeking some guidance about what exactly is to be done -- I feel a simply _demotion_ from W=1 to W=2 would suffice as CI robots aren't testing w/ that AFAIK. Nick, do you have anything to add here as we had previously discussed this off-list/IRL.
