Comment:

 I'm fairly sure that there's no underlying bug here, but we should try to
 build without warnings in any case.

 The router.c code here was introduced in 0.2.8.2-alpha, and the
 test_entrynodes.c code in 0.3.0.1-alpha.

 So there's need for one fix in 0.2.9: Branch `bug26269_029` with PR at
 https://github.com/torproject/tor/pull/147

 And for one fix in 0.3.1: Branch `bug26269_031` with PR at
 https://github.com/torproject/tor/pull/148

 I can't reproduce the compiler errors here, so I'm only _fairly_ sure that
 I fixed all the cases. Testing and review would be welcome!
