I believe you can safely ignore those. Adding "-funsigned-char" to the
compile-time options will probably eliminate them completely.

I'll do a test-install of FC4 to see if I can weed out those sometime.

(Being from a country where we depend on characters outside 7-bit ascii
for just ordinary names does have some advantages - one of them being
that I always assume chars to be unsigned. "-'q' ? You gotta be joking...")
