Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] xen-unstable build failure in tools/blktap/drivers for block-qcow2.c
User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/11.3.6.070618
Which version of gcc are you using? It works for me with 3.4.4 and 4.1.1.

Properly speaking we should check those write() return values anyway. If we
don't want to deviate from the qemu original sources that much then we could
special-case CFLAGS to remove -Wno-unused for just that file.
