Should we report any compilation warnings we see while compiling Wine to Bugzilla or is that an issue best left alone? Just wanted to ask so as to not waste anyone's time with a report they could consider erroneous.

Thanks in advance
Are you talking about anything significant? Seeing as how I'm running Gentoo and I maintain my own wine ebuilds (in a publicly accessible Layman Overlay) I try and keep an eye out for any serious problems... I can see a few "lint-type" issues, in the build logs, that could probably do with tidying up (being an OCD kinda guy - I'd probably do that if it was my "own" project)...
Your best bet for patch acceptance... Would be to file a bug and simultaneously submit a patch to fix the bug...

Well, I can't program to save my life so there won't be any patches from me
Well I'm only on gcc5.4.0 as the gcc6.x series has not yet been stabilised on Gentoo... So I can't personally do much about that (as unable to test a patch)... No coding experience required really - it's just tidying up C code block indentation though!!
However I can see quite a lot of gcc 6 specific fixes (for indentation warnings) rolling in on the Wine Git Master branch... So I expect so compilation warnings will eventually get patched - probably before 1.9.17 is released! (Although I don't see any patches specific to msvcirt/testsyet...)
