I try to get as clean a Lint as possible (using PC-Lint -- LCLint is useful for
finding some things, but about 1/3 of its warnings are just plain stupid).  I
also run the code through GCC at -Wall -ansi -pedantic as GCC has one of the
best error checking fascilities around.

It is clearly true that you can't satisfy all compiler warnings.  Sometimes the
warning is wrong and shutting up the warning by doing what they suggest will
break something!
