Thanks for trying the patch. Yes, there are lots of other warnings that 
need to be squashed. Kelly has created several bugs: 6989690 for the net 
code, 6989117 for flibm, 6989471 for zip code and many more. This does 
mean that the warnings will be fixed over several change-sets. Once they 
are eliminated then we maybe we can turn on -Werror so that they don't 
creep in again.
