This is not a problem as most compilers and/or libc support them,
even ones not written for C99. And if this size has been selected
by the configure script, then it should work.

If you want Mutt to get rid of these warnings (particularly) by using
some compiler options, it may be a bit dangerous, as it is easy to
break things. I know that...

Can we close this ticket because to changeset [d612ef757ee9]? This should work in the vast majority of cases as the format specifier comes from the system itself.

[brendan]

Ok, closing.

[agriffis]

It would be nice if we could just disable that warning; that way we could enable -Werror. It seems that -Wno-long-long kills this warning....

[brendan]

Still getting warnings on OS X, xcode 3. Either -Wno-long-long or dropping -pedantic seems like a good idea to me. I'll try the former.

[brendan]

(In [45ce2903b9e9]) Disable GCC long long warnings with -pedantic. Closes #2823. Thanks to Aron Griffis for the suggestion.
