commit 882774658cb8daee4c16677a3fd674f6052cc157
Author: Joseph Myers <joseph@codesourcery.com>
Date:   Fri Oct 30 21:40:25 2020 +0000

    Disable spurious -Warray-bounds for ypclnt.c (bug 26687)
    
    Included among the GCC 11 warnings listed in bug 26687, but not fixed
    when that bug was marked as FIXED, are -Warray-bounds warnings in
    nis/ypclnt.c.  These are all for different calls to the same piece of
    code, which already has a comment explaining that the element accessed
    is in a common prefix of the various structures.  On the basis of that
    comment, this patch treats the warning as a false positive and
    disables it for that code.
    
    Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for arm-linux-gnueabi, where,
    together with my previous two patches, this allows the build of glibc
    to complete with GCC 11 (further build failures appear in the
    testsuite).
