OK.

Here are the new warnings that show up in the tty-next HEAD. I'm not
sure it's worth looking into though (they are probably mostly side
effects created by the undefined macros errors). The x86 builds are
clean.

That would be great for me! Otherwise the build system will probably
see old/new problems popping up from time to time in this code.
