gcc-3 nad gcc-4 allow use this kind construction without output warings.
I understand that you probably use gcc-2 for probably some embeded systems 
(because gcc 2.x generates in some cases smaller code) but understand 
also me: I want keep shadow code in best readable form.
Current form in this area is IMO better.

If you want I can put this patch on shadow ftp site (?)
(and any other gcc-2 neccessary patches)
