It is correct. The compiled fixdep should not be uploaded into the source tree.
After making and testing, the clean command should remove it also.
example
make linux64-dev clean
or
make linux-dev clean
These should take away the compiled version before commiting any other changes.
I remember that those type compiler errors came up a bunch when I compiled the 64 bit version, but did not seem to affect usability. I later on began to leave them alone, since they would happen again on the 32Bit version. It was a tricky one for me, that I did not fully discover the right solution for.
Most important I think is that those are only debug messages. So I think they did not affect usability. I've run the -rel version instead on Fedora, Debian, Mint and Ubuntu since then, because the log files got quite big when I used -dev.
The clean option is broken on ubuntu 64 bit. May be you can add the binaries to the gitignore file.
I am testing this from a normal user perspective :)
The binary was compiled on 32 bit arch due to which 'make' failed on 64 bit arch's. Deleting 'fixdep' will cause it to be recompiled on the next 'make'
