tree, we have the warning about failed inlines (which with our inline
limit set to zero means any usage of the "inline" keyword at all). Note
that setting the inline limit to zero, and using -Werror, both predated
adding the warning about inlines to the tree. So whatever checkin added
that did nothing but break the tree. But oh well.
The second category of superfluous warnings is warning about functions with
no previous declaration. Apparently, if you add ALWAYS_INLINE to an empty
function definition, it considers the sucker undeclared as far as the
warning is concerned. (I.E. it's a buggy warning. I try not to ask the
compiler to generate warnings it can't competently generate.)
This is why I removed "inline" (unbreak allbareconfig), and couldn't replace it
with "ALWAYS_INLINE" (still broke allbareconfig).
We've had -Werror in the tree for quite a while, so adding #warning
somewhat counterproductve way to make comments on the code that belong on the
mailing list anyway.

Now they match again.
I don't know why patch decided to apply this even though it was already in
the tree. I thought the other hunks failed because they were totally
unrelated leakage from Bernhard's tree (which they are; was the a reason
for bundling them in with this fix? Do they have something to do with
the GCC 2.95 fix? I suspect they prevent me from backporting this
patch to 1.2.2 because the header consolidation into libbb.h hadn't
been done yet, and no I'm not fixing it up: if that's the case then
this patch won't be in 1.2.2 due to extraneous changes bundled with it that
prevent a clean backport without rolling a new patch).
option - it was going to return a special flag back to caller and
expecting caller to call it again with special parameter! Also
caller was charged with calling mount() syscall...
mount: mtab support was non-functional. Enabling it revealed serious bug
which is not fixed yet.
One of the pads turned out to be unnecessary: sizeof(struct TarHeader) is
TAR_BLOCK_SIZE, the padding's in the struct. The others could be done inline
with bb_common_bufsiz1.
This is a cleanup I did to Denis' patch long ago, but got sidetracked by
what turned into svn 15660.
