Silence ptr->int conversion warning in dump.c

[timholy]

I'm not entirely confident that this isn't warning us about a potential problem that needs a different fix, but FWIW this suppresses these longstanding warnings:

dump.c: In function ‘jl_save_system_image_to_stream’:
dump.c:1461:24: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast]
         write_int32(f, (int)reinit_list.items[i]);
                        ^
dump.c:1462:24: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast]
         write_int32(f, (int)reinit_list.items[i+1]);
                        ^

on my system. CC @vtjnash.

one downside is that it did make the build less monotonous. we could add "witty compiling hints" like in the old maxis games

[timholy]

Thanks for finding that. I did a search for that warning, but forget to remove the "issue" tag.

"frobbing method tables...", "randomizing line numbers...", "computing type of the empty array..."

sorry, I need coffee

[timholy]

I think we should occasionally display messages like "repartitioning your hard drive, please wait...", chosen at random from a pool. We could have JSoC projects to come up with other good messages.

Sadly, we killed our wiki some time ago (for valid reasons), so there's no natural place to collect these. "reticulating syntax..."

lgtm. thanks for doing this.

PyPy prints ASCII art fractals while building.

"Cryptolocker installation beginning now"

@StefanKarpinski and that's the PyPy FAQ I linked above.

"Reticulating splines" was always my favourite

Drawing a julia set seems appropriate (if a rip off of pypy).
