Incorrect warning message?

It's an example:
void c(const char *s){}
void cc(const char **p){}
void x()
{
char *s;
c(s);
cc(&s);
}
And it's the warning GCC produces for it:
bug.c: In function `x':
bug.c:7: warning: passing arg 1 of `cc' from incompatible pointer type
Is this message correct? Doesn't the <const char> for the second
defun's declaration mean exactly the same as it means for the first -
the fact that defun doesn't modify the content of the corresponding
array?
