Well, I'm not sure how that affects the line where we actually use it
(with the atomic variables) or whether that line is not needed anymore
(if that was a fix for older compilers or something similar).  But I
can send a patch for removing that warning.  How about the other
warning we get when we turn off the first one?  I just found out.  I
think that could be turned off as well, either for some particular
places or for the whole build:
