What gcc are you using? I am not getting any warning at least with gcc 
"(SUSE Linux) 4.3.1 20080507 (prerelease) [gcc-4_3-branch revision 
135036]"

$ make ipc/msg.o
  CHK     include/linux/version.h
  CHK     include/linux/utsrelease.h
  SYMLINK include/asm -> include/asm-x86
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  CC      ipc/msg.o
