I haven't seen those warnings before. Triggered by your newer gcc most likely. 
But you seem to be correct. The current code is definitely wrong. And I think 
that your version is wrong as well. This should do the "right thing":

	&build_buf[strlen(build_buf)]

I have no VxWorks platform to test this though.

Best regards,
Stefan
