The compiler is being really stupid, and I don't like making invasive changes to appease it. Non-invasive changes are fine, such as adding CFLAGS.filename += -Wno-stupid-warning to a Makefile, or changing a const variable to a #define.
If it helped, then it would also be fine to change
const char * format = "%s";
to
const char * const format = "%s";
but it doesn't help.
