Hi,

Gentoo throws some QA messages on certain compiler warnings. It may be a good 
idea to fix them before the release.

Mostly they're due to implicit declarations, I've looked into them and failed 
to fix them myself, but it shouldn't be too hard for someone with knowledge 
of the x-code.

See below the output for latest xserver-1.4 git.

 *            fine but exhibit random runtime failures.
