We need this patch to make shadow code compile ok on FC4 which is using
gcc4.

Given gcc4's propensity to warn about things that are often harmless, is it still a good idea to be compiling with -Werror?

Fixing a compile warning is very little effort, but hunting
the occasional (1 in 50?) real bug can be extremely time
consuming.

I'm not suggesting that compiler warnings shouldn't be fixed; I'm suggesting
that they shouldn't break the build.
