Jonathan,

I don't know why this message shows up in the current version, but I installed
the 2.8.1 compiler on one of my unix systems and it's nice enough to mention
that I might want to use the option: '-fguiding-decls'.  Sure enough, no
warnings.  This also works with the egcs-2.91.57 compiler I'm using on my pc.

I still don't understand what changed but this'll at least get around it.

	-Bob
