Description nvinson234 2023-05-09 11:57:53 UTC
When building with clang-16, this warning appears many times in the build log. The warning is correct; however, it appears so frequently that it makes finding the actual build error more difficult given the noise.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build the library with clang-16
2. Observe the frequent undefined behavior warning messages.
Actual Results:  
Many undefined behavior warning messages appear.

Expected Results:  
Ideally, no warning messages.

The request isn't to fix every warning as gtk+-2 is an essentially dead package. However, removing these warnings could make diagnosing future build failures easier.

cpp_macro_fix.patch

Updates the perl scripts responsible for the noisy undefined error warnings to generate the code in a different manner that prevents the warnings.
