The attached patch fixes almost all of the warnings I mentioned. There are
two more warnings I didn't fix in the code:

   warning C4146: unary minus operator applied to unsigned type, result
still unsigned

which I disabled in the project files and

   warning C4715: 'some function name' : not all control paths return a
value

which is always caused by having an 'assert(0 && ...)' as the last statement
in some functions. These are still generated since I do not like to disable
them completely in the project files, and I don't know about any portable
fix for them.

Please note, this patch contains the two other patches I submitted
previously as well.

Regards Hartmut
