When touching any file, collapse its copyright years to a single range.
This file was already touched in 2012, but its years weren't collapsed
correctly, so do it now.
The substance of the change looks OK. But is there really any need?
Aren't those warnings suppressed in system headers anyway?
If there is a need, and especially since this is a user-visible change,
nowadays our own pedanticism likes to have a bugzilla report for the issue
before the change goes in. Then the ChangeLog entry mentions the BZ#,
and the final commit adds it to the "fixed" list at the top of NEWS.
Thanks,
Roland
