What version of gcc are you using?

I get no warnings on 3.4.4:
  CC [M]  lib/zlib_inflate/infblock.o
  CC [M]  lib/zlib_inflate/infcodes.o
  CC [M]  lib/zlib_inflate/inffast.o

agard linux-2.6.15-rc7 # gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.4.4 (Gentoo 3.4.4-r1, ssp-3.4.4-1.0, pie-8.7.8)

Looks like a gcc bug that was fixed?
