I am running the code at least for 1.0.7.17 with a large amount of warnings.


The problem is the code was done for older versions of the gcc compiler such 
as
v4 and as time and versions have come out the warning count has increased.

I guess no one knows enough about the compiler and mbse to do some fixes as I
suspect that if a few is dealt with the rest will also be dealt with as they
are all similar.
