Of course fixing that bug in spec2000 sources is trivial.
What I wonder about is the rule prohibiting modification of sources for oficial
results.  I have no plans about releasing results, but I think it should be
possible with gcc.

The promoted types are only problem in the specint part (except for some
misscompilations in VPR and Crafty benchmarks I am tracking down right now).

I am open to all suggestions...

I didn't liked the idea of switching error to warning eighter, but basically I
tend to believe that having error instead of warning would only bring problems
to end users trying to compile their favorite program.  Developers should to
take care for warnings too.  What was the primary motivation to make it an
error?  Well, I will search the archives.
