This warning needs to be heeded and the code fixed
Can you please clarify what you mean by "This warning needs to be heeded and the code fixed"? In particular, which of the following is what you are saying? - [ ] If these issues don't get fixed, I won't use Sage. - [ ] If some random college professors doing Sage development in their spare time for free don't drop what they are doing and fix these bugs, then you won't be able to sell Sage to a defense contractor, like the 1 million lines of code my company sold once. - [ ] I am asking whether the Sage development community would be amenable to accepting patches that fix these issues? If so, I may have some followup questions. - [ ] You guys must allocate some of the fulltime paid Sage developers to fixing these issues, because ... - [ ] None of the above. -- William (I of course know you personally, and know that you are a very serious skilled professional software engineer and computational number theory researcher.
