FWIW, adding a few casts does silence the warnings, at least on clang-3.9,
which I had around.
But there also are other warnings on that compiler, mainly stuff like:
../../home/andres/src/postgresql/src/interfaces/libpq/fe-auth-oauth-curl.c:1437:28: warning: suggest braces around
initializationof subobject [-Wmissing-braces]
struct itimerspec spec = {0};
I lean towards not fixing this stuff, but if you would like me to, I can.
