I see. I was surprised that these warnings do not show up when I used the
provided Makefile. That build finished without any warnings. Even though
that's the only way that's supported, I'm hoping someone here uses cmake
successfully to use RInside, and will be kind enough to help :)

Thanks Dirk. I'll try to go down this path and post a solution on this list
if I find one.
