Message-ID: <20060403112107.GQ1259@lug-owl.de> (raw)

Hi!

This patch silences a const vs. non-const warning issued by very
recent GCC versions:

$ vax-linux-uclibc-gcc -v 2>&1 | grep version
gcc version 4.2.0 20060331 (experimental)

$ make CROSS_COMPILE=vax-linux-uclibc- ARCH=vax mopboot
[...]
  CC      lib/string.o
lib/string.c: In function 'memcpy':
lib/string.c:470: warning: initialization discards qualifiers from pointer target type
[...]
