Comment 1 Beth Uptagrafft 2002-04-24 18:17:04 UTC

This testcase was issuing an extra warning that was not expected.
calloc was called with no prototype, so when the result was cast
to a pointer, the compiler was issuing a warning that the size of
calloc's return type and the pointer were different sizes. The testcase
will now allow that warning to be issued without failing.
