Thanks Arnd.

I think I've gotten too reliant on zero day and clearly am not checking my local
build warnings closely enough.  Time to go back to doing pre push out checks more

Anyhow, applied to the togreg branch of iio.git.  Will probably be the weekend
at least before I send another pull request.

Thanks,

Jonathan
