These are warnings in my build (I've seen a few others scroll by
and have always assumed they were expected(*)).  Those you pasted
below are intended: the none mode implies that const void* pointer
should point to an object 1 byte in size (that excludes valid,
past-the-end pointers, something I've been meaning to add
an extension for).  The test should change to use a valid pointer.
I test by simply running make check.  I can make the change to
the test if you expect warning-free test builds.

[*] Here's an example of a warning I just noticed while rerunning
make check:

tst-chk1.c: In function ‘do_test’:
../bits/select.h:37:51: warning: value computed is not used [-Wunused-value]
