I checked the buildfarm, and (so far) adder and flaviventris have
shown this warning, but nothing else has. adder is using gcc 14.2.0
with -O0, while flaviventris is using gcc 16.0.0 with -O0. Also
I tried -O0 with gcc 15.1.1 on my Fedora 42 box, and now it shows the
warning. So maybe the difference is just -O0? But I think there are
other buildfarm animals using that, so I'm not certain we've explained
the difference fully.

Anyway, based on that I think there's enough reason to go ahead
with your patch.
