I might need to cast the u16 to an u32. But first I've noticed, that I have to use GUINT_TO_POINTER instead of GINT_TO_POINTER which might solved this already (well, probably not).

Exactly. I've added an "unrequired" initialization in the else part which should satisfy gcc here (didn't found a better way).

For the first one I've simply added the prefix "Block: " which is a good idea at all.
The second one is a bit more tricky. I'm not sure what's the right solution to this.
The alternative: If there's a short packet which would simply append the string "Get", this might also not be very informational.
I've simply fixed it, by exchanging the empty string instead of appending it (however, that's still not perfect).
I've noticed another warning in packet-pn-io.c, which I've fixed too.
I will keep an eye on the gcc warnings in these files.
BTW: the buildbot is a good way to find warnings for platforms you don't have at hand :-)
