The platform is Solaris/Intel (2.8 and/or 2.9). I'll have to get you more complete details tomorrow. The involved folks are gone for the day. Ok. I'll get back to a Solaris machine next week, so I can investigate somewhat myself. Of course, the rule is, strictly speaking, "no warnings on the major platforms"; I'm uncertain whether Solaris still applies here. It is clearly not feasible to have Python compile with no warning no matter what the compiler or operating system is. The major platforms, of course, are Windows, Linux, OS X (i.e. the ones we provide binaries for).

I've been trying to keep the solaris build warning-free for the last few months, although I've been using SunPro and not GCC. I would like to believe that Solaris is a 'major platform' (sparc, at least), but maybe I'm misguided.. :-)
