Thanks for pointing this out. We will send a patch for this soon.
I am not ignoring any warnings. I did build my tree different way as
shown below but did not get above warning message.

Please let me know how else would I get above warning message?

I missed doing make checkstack which doesn't display warning message but
lists the function names.
