bits/string2.h

Hi all,

Question here: I'm running gcc-2.95.2. When I try to compile something
using the string functions, gcc uses the macros in include/bits/string2.h
to optimize them, however, I get tons of warning messages like this:

/usr/include/bits/string2.h: In function `__strcpy_small':
/usr/include/bits/string2.h:419: warning: pointer of type `void *' used
in arithmetic

Here's the compile line:

gcc -g -O2 -Wall -W -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wbad-function-cast
-Wcast-qual -Wcast-align -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes
-Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline -O
-I. -I../../hdf5-1.2.2-snap1/test -I../src -I../../hdf5-1.2.2-snap1/src
-I/home/wendling/dev/NewHDF/include -DNDEBUG -UH5_DEBUG_API -c -fPIC
-DPIC stab.c

Is there something I'm doing wrong? Is there a commandline option I could
give it to stop these warnings?

Thanks.
