Hi Jonathan,

These patches don't have too much in common, hence the subject
line, except perhaps that 4 of them fix sparse warnings.

Note that the fourth patch is actually a simplified version of
an earlier RFC patch. Junio didn't like the idea of using a
build variable (GIT_TEST_HIGHLIGHT_BIN) to set the path to the
'correct' highlight tool. see:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/234138

Having recently had to re-configure Thunderbird, I noticed that
the documentation needed updating. (actually, I was sure that I
had sent a similar patch, years ago, when I last did this! :-P )

ATB,
Ramsay Jones

Thanks.  These look good.

I tweaked the descriptions a bit to focus on what sparse was warning
about instead of our having quieted sparse. :)

Yes, the subject lines are much better. Thanks!
