Maybe later. I don't have time to fight with phabricator today.

If you think that's best, but do note that neither of these warnings is
flagging much of a problem:

- The four-character-literal warning is flagging implementation defined
  behaviour four spelling a 32 bit hex constant in ascii instead of
  something like 0x46445343. This is a portability vs readability thing,
  and pretty minor.

- The format-pedantic is warning about passing typed pointers to a %p
  format specifier. The "fix" is to cast these arguments to `void *`,
  which IMO hurts readability for no gain. I'm pretty sure this warning
  only exists to preserve portability to some hypothetical ABI whose
  calling convention depends on the type of the pointer.
