Ah ha! That might be a test bug. I'll investigate.
Personally (on principle), I never build or even run "make check" as root.
Rather, I use the special target that runs only the root-only tests:
"make check-root".

Good! I wish more people cared about those warnings.
If you add -Dlint to CFLAGS, all of those will go away.
FYI, I don't release even a snapshot unless a build with
CFLAGS='-O -Wall -Dlint -Wshadow' succeeds.
