The compile ones aren't so hard to fix. You know where they are. The
tricky ones are the "glib: This pointer is NULL" ones, because you never
know who should have set the pointer to something non-NULL. This is the
issue referred to by me (earlier), Tim Sweetman (later) etc. It's also in
my opinion the strongest argument for not disabling warnings at 
deployment.
