Description dann frazier 2006-08-28 23:44:42 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Building evolution-sharp 0.11 on a Debian system results in the above warning.
I filter the build logs from the Debian autobuilders to look for these warnings because they are guaranteed to cause segfaults on 64-bit systems like amd64 & ia64 if the returned pointer is ever dereferenced.

For more details, see:
  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=334248

Steps to reproduce:
1. Download http://people.debian.org/~dannf/check-implicit-pointer-functions
2. ./configure
3. make 2>&1 | tee check-implicit-pointer-functions

Actual results:
$ ~/bin/check-implicit-pointer-functions < ../evolution-sharp.buildlog
Function `GNOME_Evolution_Shell_findComponent' implicitly converted to pointer at ./mail/e-mail-remote-glue.c:204

Expected results:
no output

Does this happen every time?
yes
