Fixed in Git repository.

Remaining compiler warnings are now fixed in commit cb387bd6f.

Note: The solution of potential format (buffer) overflows was to increase
buffer (variable) sizes.

I'm aware that some of the resultant buffers could theoretically contain
filename strings longer than FL_PATH_MAX [1] which would likely result in
errors opening such files. This seems to be better than buffer overflows
though.

----

[1] The typical case is to concatenate a directory string and a filename.
Since both variables are of size FL_PATH_MAX the resultant string could be
longer than FL_PATH_MAX which should not happen in reality.
