As a summary warnings are correct as the current code cannot run IIUC.
The crash is also correct because the code is no longer compatible with
current compilers. Therefore it is correct the testcase is skipped with
compilers no longer able to run the testcase.
I am not going to fix the testcase myself not knowing ObjC so leaving it as is
and dropping my "-w" patch.
Thanks,
Jan
