Should I be concerned about the following compiler warning?  I'm 
attempting to build mk78 for an i386 platform.   I did not modify
the source from CMU.  

  gcc -c -O  -MD  -DMACH -DMACH_KERNEL -DKERNEL  
../../../../../src/mk/kernel/kern/eventcount.c
  kern/eventcount.c: In function evc_continue:
  kern/eventcount.c:135: warning: `volatile' function does return


And how about this one?  

   gcc -c -O  -MD  -DMACH -DMACH_KERNEL -DKERNEL  
../../../../../src/mk/kernel/device/chario.c
   device/chario.c:169: warning: initialization between incompatible
pointer types

I guess I naively expected the unmodified, plain vanilla kernel to
compile cleanly
with no warnings.  All other files were ok.  False expectations or
cockpit error?
