In addition to the above, I just pushed pu/fix-new-compiler-warnings.
It fixes a few handfuls of new warnings (when compared against a log of
building 1.0.24 with the same settings).  It doesn't fix all of them as
I wasn't sure what to do with a number of the new warnings.

One, in sanei_ir.c, deserves some attention as it produces potentially
undefined behaviour.  It's really the same issue as reported in 311857,
which I recently reopened.

  ../../../sanei/sanei_ir.c:481:11: warning: multiple unsequenced modifications to 'outi' [-Wunsequenced]
     *outi++ = *outi++ >> is;

The two increments may occur in any given order, IIUC[3].

The rest are more benign: unused function arguments, self-assignments
(to work around unused argument warnings ;-), conversions between enums
that are not compatible and conditionals that are constant (because
SANE_FRAME_JPEG is not a member of the SANE_Frame enum range).

Anyway, please consider merging the pu/ branches at my GitLab clone.

Hope this helps,
