Thanks for the v2, probably should include a note about ntohs.  That
case in particular looks more complicated, due to the definition of
ntohs (which uses __swab16).

If you keep the previous flag of %04hx, but add an explicit cast to
u16, does the warning go away? If so, that might be a better fix.

- ntohs(dbuf->blocks[tmp].hdr.magic));
+ (u16)ntohs(dbuf->blocks[tmp].hdr.magic));

?

Particularly, I'm curious about the return type of GNU C statement
expressions, in the definition of __swab16 if __HAVE_BUILTIN_BSWAP16__
is not defined.
