I have -Wall on all the time and only have the three. Maybe its
a compiler or library or kernel header thing.
The three warnings I left in just to separate the hackers from
the common programmers :-).

Nah, warnings are things you want to think about and *might*
want to fix. But "fixing" code just to get rid of warnings
is non-productive work and can introduce errors (or even hide
them if you over use casts). As long as there aren't too many
I can live with them.
