Hi Chris,

These warnings were issued by gcc v3.4.4, but not by gcc v4.1.2.
So I guess gcc probably found these warnings to be too noisy ...

ATB,
Ramsay Jones

I don't think you want to add defaults like this just to avoid warnings.
Warnings like that can help when adding a new item to an enum, to find
the places where you need to extend the code to hand the new item.  And
since current GCC doesn't even issue the warning by default, it seems
even more unnecessary to add that default case.
