Perhaps my tone was a bit hostile. I apologize.

I did not interpret your message in the same manner. To me, it indicated
that I needed to take ACTIVE intervention to get it to work.
I was expecting to have to add a "-lxxx" to the library flags in the

We could add a message to "Ignore Warnings".

OTOH, I suspect that the authors would be happy to accept diffs which
reduce the number of warnings. Such contributions would help
not only FreeBSD, but everyone else.
