What's your definition of "latest gcc"? According to gcc.gnu.org, it's
4.0.0. How about this warning:
utilvfs.c: In function 'vfs_mkstemps':
utilvfs.c:211: warning: pointer targets in assignment differ in
signedness
It doesn't even require -Wall.

It depends on how stable it is. Last time I tried it didn't work well.

I believe an X error handler is needed.
