Details:

dfasearch.c: In function 'EGexecute':
dfasearch.c:416:3: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 3 of
'mb_case_map_apply' differ in signedness [-Wpointer-sign]
In file included from dfasearch.c:23:0:
search.h:66:1: note: expected 'size_t *' but argument is of type 'ptrdiff_t
*'

It may cause problems. I noticed probably not directly related problem on
RHEL-6 @ s390 ("turkish w/wo dot tests" failure), but probably gcc bug in this
case:
