Sure and why not warn about the use of void pointers, or malloc, or any other thing that could cause problems? What's next - code formatting advice from the compiler?
"Warning (Line 3114): the use of tabs is considered bad form".
That isn't a compiler's job IMO. It's all about delegation of concerns. Hell, the compiler doesn't even know *a priori* what function you're linking to, so it really has no business making assumptions, anyway.
