It's not a problem for me, I can fix it myself. The reason of questions
that I'm writing libc myself and tried to build toybox with it(like it
built in toybox) and got this warnings(not only :) ). So I asked about
standards of toybox. When writing my toy-libc I use "The Open Group Base
Specifications Issue 7" so this functions is legacy for me. The question what
standards and codestyle you are guided.

PS I need to read more about bionic internals after your previos letter.
And maybe about toybox too. :)
