I think there's a rule in either ANSI C++ or C99 that says that
both values in a conditional expression (?:) need to be the exact
same type (including signedness).
gcc3 enforces this rule by default; so I don't think a gcc bug
report is in order (unless it's mistakenly identifying the two
types as different, of course).  Does this warning happen if you
use --std=c89 (or whatever thay option is)?
