Those warnings look like the same ones I've seen many times on Debian
Alpha.  AFAICT they're indicative of nothing except sloppy programming
in a system header file.

I can report that 7.2 passes regression tests on sourceforge's
SPARC/Linux machine, which claims to be Debian 2.2.  uname says

Linux usf-cf-sparc-linux-1 2.2.18pre21 #1 SMP Wed Nov 22 17:27:17 EST 2000 sparc64 unknown

Curiously, though, I don't see any of the mathinline warnings on that
machine.  Slightly different Debian version perhaps?
