I'm getting the following warnings on an install of Hobbit onto Fedora Core 4, and wanted to find out if they are safe to ignore.

I believe you can safely ignore those. Adding "-funsigned-char" to the compile-time options will probably eliminate them completely.
I'll do a test-install of FC4 to see if I can weed out those sometime.
(Being from a country where we depend on characters outside 7-bit ascii for just ordinary names does have some advantages - one of them being that I always assume chars to be unsigned. "-'q' ? You gotta be joking...")
