+C type errors in the SWIG-generated Perl bindings
+
+The first change fixes an error with newer compilers:
+
+OpenIPMI_wrap.c: In function ‘_wrap_strconstarray_val_set’:
+OpenIPMI_wrap.c:10491:27: error: assignment to ‘const char **’ from incompatible pointer type ‘char **’
+10491 |     if (arg1) (arg1)->val = arg2;
+      |                           ^
+
+The second change is also about a compiler error:
