Dear Kumar Gala,
In message 1247495041-8605-3-git-send-email-galak@kernel.crashing.org you wrote:
The version of dlmalloc we are using generates a fair number of warnings of the following form:
warning: dereferencing pointer '({anonymous})' does break strict-aliasing rules
Trying to fix these is just paper taping over the issue and we really just need to look into a new malloc implementation. So we disable these particular warning checks for dlmalloc.c only.

Well, if you think fixing the problems is "paper taping over the issue", then how do you call NOT fixing the problems and shutting off the warnings?
NAK.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
