Well, they're warnings, so the code does compile. I've no idea if it 
works, though, since I can't compile the bindings. :)

I'd be much happier if we got rid of the warnings, even if they're benign.

I though about this, but I was confused because the line _before_ that 
one in apr.h reads:

    typedef  __int64  apr_int64_t;

and SWIG doesn't complain about it.
i'll try your patch anyway, will let you know how it goes.
