You can keep a pristine install and avoid this harmless warning by
installing GCC from source, and applying this patch in gcc/objc.

I suggest inventing a whole different local install location for this
that will be unlikely to ever be stepped on by RPMs.  I usually
use /packages or $HOME/packages.  So, you'd build gcc-2.95 like this:

$ ./configure --prefix=/packages
$ make bootstrap
$ make install

Alternatively, you can just ignore the warnings.
