Hello Carl,

I have nothing changed. Compiled over 400+ packages in last 10 days, but
few like dico do not work out of the box.

I have gcc 5.3.0. How would I change settings to warning?

another thing about gets()

see man gets
 " LSB deprecates gets().  POSIX.1-2008 marks gets() obsolescent.  ISO C11 removes the  specification  of  gets()
       from  the  C language, and since version 2.16, glibc header files don't expose the function declaration if the
       _ISOC11_SOURCE feature test macro is defined.

It might be the case that your code doesn't recognize gets() is because _ISOC11_SOURCE feature test macro is defined.

It would be better for all concerned if the original author wished to maintain the program and fix it.

But we're all volunteers...
