           Summary: -Wold-style-cast triggers on casts in macros from system
                    headers
           Product: gcc
           Version: 3.3
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
        AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org
        ReportedBy: stl at caltech dot edu
                CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org

See this thread:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2003-09/msg00162.html

Basically, if something like

#pragma GCC system_header
#define NOTHING (int) 0

appears in something.h, and meow.cc consists of

#include <something.h>
int blah = NOTHING;

and meow.cc is compiled with -Wold-style-cast, the warning will trigger.

I originally encountered this using MinGW gcc 3.3, but Zack Weinberg's 
comments in the thread indicate that no version of gcc anywhere yet knows 
enough to not emit this warning.

This is reallly a preprocess failure (as the preprocessor does not tell the front-end that the code is 
from a system header).  It is also related to bug 11931 and bug 7263.

------- Additional Comments From stl at caltech dot edu  2004-03-13 02:11 -------
My current workaround is similar to what Kai Henningsen proposed: I have my 
own const constants for #define'd constants, as well as my own functions for 
#define'd macros (e.g. FD_SET), in a separate header which I then mark as a 
GCC system header. This produces warning-free code. It's a dirty hack, though.

As pointed out in a comment there, it's a different case.
