Hi Achim,

My definition of "building fine" is that the build process does not
break and that it produces the target files. Warnings are not errors
in the process of building, they are pointers to potential problems in
the code that has been built.

If you or anyone can fix those error, please have a go.

Yes, I want to clean this up a bit for 8.0.

Well, It's not that bad :)

So, this is mostly babel.

None of the above really counts as "core feature" for me.

Yes, agreed.
My time will first go to actual bugs with Emacs 23/24 reported by users,
then to actual bugs in Emacs 22 reported by the users, then to potential
bugs in Emacs 24/23, then to potential bugs in Emacs 22... meaning that
there is little chance for me to work on potential bugs with Emacs 22
(or to review patches for this very quickly.)
Thanks,
