The plot thickens: we *do* have one such critter, mandrill, but for some
reason it's not generating any complaint about this. Must be a very
lax compiler.
My own compilers don't generate errors either, only warnings. Maybe
we could catch this sort of thing mechanically with a critter configured
with -Werror as well as --disable-integer-datetimes, but I'm a tad
hesitant to have a buildfarm machine configured with -Werror. We'd
be raising the stakes quite a bit on keeping the code warning-free
for a specific compiler that might prove to be picky in silly ways.
But if it were a pretty mainstream compiler that hadn't shown much
evidence of wanting to throw useless warnings, maybe that's fine.
Thoughts?
