<div>I haven't really got into this, so maybe the suprresion files
does allow you to quickly fix it.</div>

The way I see it, a problem in a library you use is still a problem in
your product. This is not really a false positive.<br>

<div>It's more complex than that. The code currently work on the
embedded device. This is a mission critical device, so we cannot make
changes to the runtime code without testing it throughly first.</div>
<div>I try therefor to fix the problem in the emulation level without
touching the actual code. (for instance, overriding a certain
problematic function which used an uninitialized variable, and got away
with it in the embedded device, but not in the desktop, or, replace the
macro which stores a specific memory address (hex number) which is used
by a the code, and is obviously relevant only for the embedded device)</div>

I'll repeat it again, and then stop, as I don't want it to become a war.<br>
<br>
The fact it is mission critical is another reason to fix all warnings,
not a reason to ignore them.<br>
