Public bug reported:

Builds of EPICS Base using recent versions of gcc, clang and MSVC
generate compiler warnings, which we try to minimize if possible. Some
of these warnings can be prevented with suitable code modifications,
although the code must still build on the older compilers and other
architectures that we support.

Both the 3.15 and 7.0 branches can be examined for warnings; fixes made
on the 3.15 branch get propagated to the 7.0 branch during periodic up-
merges, so there is no need to make the same changes to both branches.
Some code only exists on one branch; for example the gdd module was
unbundled after 3.15, and there are many new modules in 7.0.
