They are bogus as the C standard explicitly allows conversion between
integer types.

I never looked at that but I assume the same holds true as above.

In this specific case it doesn't. Start littering the code with casts to
get rid of all those warnings and it will majorly hurt. Unneeded casts
are *BAD*; worse then ignoring bogus warnings from a compiler.
