> Fix a couple of harmless compiler warnings that appeared in debug builds with GCC 16.

Some projects use -Werror, only ever test with older GCC, and builds fail with anything recent. SQLite on the other hand anticipates the new compiler warnings of GCC 3 major versions in the future, that's impressive!

GCC 16!? Are they from the future?
I'm sure they mistyped '6' over '3' from numpad; it can happen to any of us.
While I find your explanation plausible, who has the muscle memory to press "g", "c", "c", spacebar, lift hand to numpad, "1", "6(no 3 sire!)", hand back to home row?
To be fair, you can be typing "gcc" with the left hand, while the right hand moves to the numpad.

Efficiency.

It's faster for me than looking down to figure out where the numbers are on the top row
If you used the top row more often, you wouldn't need to look down...
I would use both my hands
