(I had accidentally posted this yesterday as reply to an older thread, but it was meant as feedback to make-4.3.92.) On macOS, compiling "glob.c" gives these warnings: glob.c:823:27: warning: incompatible pointer types passing 'char **' to parameter of type 'char *'; dereference with * [-Wincompatible-pointer-types] = (char **) realloc (pglob->gl_pathv, ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * glob.c:942:24: warning: incompatible pointer types passing 'char **' to parameter of type 'char *'; dereference with * [-Wincompatible-pointer-types] = (char **) realloc (pglob->gl_pathv, ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * glob.c:997:39: warning: incompatible pointer types passing 'char **' to parameter of type 'char *'; dereference with * [-Wincompatible-pointer-types] new_pathv = (char **) realloc (pglob->gl_pathv, ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * glob.c:1388:23: warning: incompatible pointer types passing 'char **' to parameter of type 'char *'; dereference with * [-Wincompatible-pointer-types] = (char **) realloc (pglob->gl_pathv, ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * but from what Paul said in https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2019-05/msg00017.html > Argh, another glob.c issue.

I assume we still have to live with these warnings? Apart from that, there is only one compiler warning: src/getopt.c:685:6: warning: add explicit braces to avoid dangling else [-Wdangling-else] else ^ A fix had been posted in https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=58075. That looks like a "small effort" change to me, perhaps it can be incorporated into GNU Make 4.4? Regards, Martin
