I don't believe that's a typo, Jörg. There are both "ptrmismatch" and
"ptrmismatch1" tags that the C compiler will skip warning about under
different situations. With earlier versions of the compiler, though,
there was just "ptrmismatch". That's why it appears in the configure
script -- when that part of the configure script was written, there was
no "ptrmismatch1".
I think your change is still a good one. With the compiler behavior
under 5.x, ptrmismatch1 is very likely the tag you want to suppress
warnings for.
