Details:

The following compile warnings on AIX 5.3 with the C for AIX Compiler,
Version 6, should (hopefully) be easy to fix:

"function.c", line 1751.34: 1506-280 (W) Function argument assignment between
types "int*" and "unsigned int*" is not allowed.

void fold_newlines (char *buffer, int *length) is called in line 1751 in
func_shell() with fold_newlines (buffer, &i); where i is an unsigned int
(this has been changed since 3.80). In the #ifdef _AMIGA part it is still
called with an int. This there probably was a good reason to switch from int
to unsigned int, it should be done everywhere.



"misc.c", line 667.15: 1506-280 (W) Function argument assignment between
types "unsigned char*" and "const unsigned char*" is not allowed.
"misc.c", line 746.15: 1506-280 (W) Function argument assignment between
types "unsigned char*" and "const unsigned char*" is not allowed.
"misc.c", line 794.15: 1506-280 (W) Function argument assignment between
types "unsigned char*" and "const unsigned char*" is not allowed.
"misc.c", line 828.15: 1506-280 (W) Function argument assignment between
types "unsigned char*" and "const unsigned char*" is not allowed.

_() expands to (const char*)() on AIX. Therefore static void log_access (char
*flavor) should be replaced by static void log_access (const char *flavor).
