RE: [Xen-ia64-devel] "-Wall" option doesn't work

["Zhang, Xiantao" <xiantao.zhang@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Anthony,
I am also working on this issue now. Fixing these warnings as Tristan said is 
very boring indeed. Since Tristan have made the patch for it, and I won't spend 
more time on this again. OK? :)

Hi, Tristan,
        I think above patches to fix warning are very important and always 
welcomed for stability. Maybe Dan was in busy with other more important threads 
at time you sent out them. Could you re-send them out?

Absolutely agree.

Thanks,
