Known Problems
==============
-* The gcc 2.95.2 compiler has a bug which causes spurious warnings such
- as:
+* With the gcc 2.95.2 compiler, HDF 5 uses the `-ansi' flag during
+ compilation. The ANSI version of the compiler complains about not being
+ able to handle the `long long' datatype with the warning:
- "warning: pointer of type `void *' used in arithmetic"
-
- and other such warnings having to do with string handling. These
- warnings are innocuous and don't effect the resulting executable.
+ warning: ANSI C does not support `long long'
+
+ This warning is innocuous and can be safely ignored.
* When building the HDF5 test project on Windows NT 4.0 (testhdf5
and testhdf5dll), the compiler fails to compile tvstr.c within
