Using this patch I was able to build git with

While most of this patch fixes void-pointer arithmetic and is therefore
trivial, I had to change the use of a struct with FAMs in `diff-lib.c'. Since
this is the first time I encountered FAMs it'd probably be a good idea if
someone who knows would take a look at that.
Many of the void-pointer arithmetic warnings could be fixed by changing
the variable types to char * instead of casting them in many places.

Yes this is somewhat ugly but avoids a malloc.  You could use alloca but
the man-page says:

    "The alloca() function is machine and compiler dependent. On many systems
     its implementation is buggy. Its use is discouraged."

Leave the code as it is now unless it causes real problems.
 static inline int needs_quote(int ch)
 {
-	switch (ch) {
-	case '/': case '-': case '.':
-	case 'A'...'Z':	case 'a'...'z':	case '0'...'9':
+	if (((ch >= 'A') && (ch <= 'Z'))
+			|| ((ch >= 'a') && (ch <= 'z'))
+			|| ((ch >= '0') && (ch <= '9'))
+			|| (ch == '/')
+			|| (ch == '-')
+			|| (ch == '.'))
'A'...'Z' is more readable.  Does some compiler fail to compile it?

Hmm.. same function in http-fetch.c.  Lots of common code could be moved
to http.h.
