Description Mike A. Harris 2005-10-30 00:17:22 UTC 
Many of these are likely harmless or trivial in nature, however some
of them are potentially serious SEGV material, so all of them should
be investigated and fixed for X11R7.

Comment 3 Mike A. Harris 2006-06-06 03:33:49 UTC 
Mostly trivial stuff not worth tracking.  The best way for handling these
types of issues is to organize a community project upstream to get the
whole tree of Xorg building warning-free on Linux and possibly on BSD and/or
Solaris in the future.
