A fix for this went in 2 weeks ago, as commit
dc071fbae201f2b8db5539fd016c0d51be0bbe15.  This ought to be available
on master.  AFAIK this hasn't hit the stability branch (yet).

By the way, that array bounds GCC warning should've been fixed a while
ago as well, way back in January there's commit
3ac5bf73c0bec0c5f230ac685e4a17d69a7ea382 which silences these warnings
for clang.  It should also silence them for GCC, I suppose.

Of course, if these warnings are shown by GCC it might be better to
investigate why, and attempt to actually fix them instead of working
around it by using another compiler!

Cheers,
Peter
