Are your willing and able to test some experimental patch?

On git://git.schlittermann.de/exim.git you'll find a branch
suppress-warnings (on top of the master branch). This branch is work in
progress and may be removed/changed without any notice.

But you're encouraged to give it a try, if all that
testing/listing/checking modes work as expected and without the
warnings.

    Best regards from Dresden/Germany
