These are not errors. they are warnings and have no effect on the resulting

Basically HP changed specifications for their assembler a few years ago and
older versions of GCC didn't know about the change.
Updating to a more recent version of GCC should fix that problem, but as I
mentioned before, it's just a warning and doesn't actually show any end-user
effects.

No, these warnings have nothing to do with that issue.

It's part of the GNU binutils package.
