Looks like a compiler issue, since merge_requests() seems to correctly
return a non-null value when it does not touch the passed pointer to
buf. So your simple change looks like a correct workaround.


In general I think Makefiles should rather not mess with -W* and -O*
options like this, and use only the global flags if possible.
