>          Components: C++
>    Affects Versions: C++ 1.7.3
>         Environment: Debian Linux x86_64
> gcc (Debian 5.2.1-22) 5.2.1 20151010
>            Reporter: Ferenc Wágner

> The build process emits lots of warnings like this:
> {noformat}
> /bin/bash ../libtool  --tag=CXX   --mode=compile g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I../xsec/framework  -I..

> {noformat}
> The reason is that {{-Wconversion-null}} is enabled by default in newer gcc versions. The solution is probably replacing the offending NULLs with 0s. The affected places in the 1.7.3 code base:
> {noformat}
> $ fgrep conversion-null xml-security-c_1.7.3-1_amd64.build | sort -u
> tools/checksig/InteropResolver.cpp:648:9: warning: converting 'false' to pointer type 'XSECCryptoKey*' [-Wconversion-null]
