Hi,
                     
I'm working on a standalone driver and have been running into these
warnings lately.  Whilst compiling Mac-on-Linux I also got these
warnings as well.  Searching around I only found some netbsd folks
gettings these same warnings.  Anyone have an idea where this comes from? 

/usr/include/linux/string.h:31: warning: conflicting types for built-in
function `memset'

Easy.  Anything that is including linux/string.h should be a module -
otherwise it needs to rearrange its choice of include files.  Any
module should use the settings from the kernel makefiles, which
include:
 -mmultiple -mstring -ffixed-r2 -fno-builtins

It's that last one you really want.
