hmm, I tested it for the w64 compiler and I got no warnings about this at 
all. Is gdb using some --std option? If so it could be that you are fooled 
by the ISO C message that I isn't an ISO formatter. This check can be 
turned off (as we did it for gcc 4.4) by the option 
-Wno-pedantic-ms-format.
