Might I suggest you try the patch below?  As I have no MinGW available I
cannot try it myself, sorry.  It might need some adapting.

This is bad news indeed (but a different matter).  It essentially means
that we are breaking binary compatibility as soon as we add another
warning, right? (The array size is part of the ABI).  Very unfortunate.

BTW, the #define hacks make us get away with the namespace w.r.t argz.h,
but not w.r.t slist.h.  I think that needs to be addressed, right?
