Summary

0004848: ocamlc is being noisy when running with g++-4.4

Description

When we compile the ocaml bindings for llvm, ocamlc is very noisy with this particular error:

$ /usr/bin/ocamlc -cc "g++ -Wall -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_REENTRANT -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -m64 -mtune=generic" -I /scratch/llvm/llvm-build-Debug/Debug/lib/ocaml -warn-error A llvm.cma llvm_analysis.cma llvm_bitwriter.cma /scratch/llvm/llvm/test/Bindings/Ocaml/vmcore.ml -o vmcore.ml.tmp
/tmp/camlprim1539f1.c:1490: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’
/tmp/camlprim1539f1.c:1490: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’
/tmp/camlprim1539f1.c:1490: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’
/tmp/camlprim1539f1.c:1490: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’
...

I looked at that file, and it looks like ocaml is generating a file with:

char * caml_names_of_builtin_cprim[] = {
  "caml_alloc_dummy",
  "caml_alloc_dummy_float",
  "caml_update_dummy",
  "caml_array_get_addr",
   ...
};

I believe if that was a "const char*" this error would go away. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to reduce this down to a smaller example since I can't figure out when ocaml actually generates this block of text.
