9 months ago Hi,
That's very probably due to a recent change in GCC. https://wellys.com/posts/avr_c_gcc_error/
See the very bottom of the post for the solution:
In a nutshell, one has to add “–param=min-pagesize=0” to their CFLAGS in the Makefile as in:
CFLAGS = -Os -mcall-prologues -g3 -std=gnu99 -Wall -Werror -Wundef --param=min-pagesize=0
If the version of GCC is less than 12, this will break GCC as this is a new parameter. Once I did, the warning went away, the
error went away (due to Werror) and everything was fine again.As you noted, it's a false alarm. But leaving your compiler report filled with false alarms can lead you to miss out when it matters. Better to add the flag into the Makefile and make the compiler warnings reflect actual mistakes.
Good catch!

Wondering why I get these compile warnings. slowScope is working here anyway.
