Dear VMD users,

I am building MD from source (CVS) on a LINUXAMD64 (SuSE linux, gcc 4.2). During the plugin build I get a lot of warning messages. Some examples are below.
The build seems ok inspite of these warnings. My question is: Shall I worry about these warnings .. or I can go on with the build ?

Thanks
Best
