Right.  The development sources already changed to this standard
specification.  But it will take time before the next release of the
library is out.

Yes, I use the standard headers as shipped with the latest official
release.

What, if any, are other options?

My goal is quite limited: I'd like to let users compile GDB without
seeing warnings.  If there's a GCC option I could use to avoid the
warning, it'd be fine, provided that this option will not cause older
versions of the compiler (say, the 2.95.x series at least) to barf.

Failing that, your suggestion sounds fine.  Thanks.
