The warning is stating that the symbol was attempted to be redefined from 
one type to another, not that it was successful, so I don't think this 
patch actually helps make anything clearer.  (gcc warns when a symbol is 
redefined by saying "redefintion of `blah`".)  Perhaps include that the 
redefinition was ignored?
