GCC 4.2.1 needs -Wno-address, not -Wno-always-true.

[ Backported from ELinks 0.12.GIT.  The 0.11 branch is still using
  older Autoconf macros.  ]

# GCC 4.2 snapshots warn that comparisons like &object != NULL
# always return true. Some macros in ELinks check whether pointer
# arguments are NULL, and giving them addresses of named objects
# triggers the warning. These warnings have not revealed any real
# bugs, so shut them up instead of complicating the code. GCC 4.1
# does not recognize -Wno-always-true and exits with code 1 if it is
# given.

# GCC 4.2.1 warns if we use the address of an object in Boolean context:
# warning: the address of `builtin_modules' will always evaluate as `true'
# This hits the object_lock and foreach_module macros in particular.
# It would be okay to put something in the macros to avoid the warning,
# but currently this seems to require defining parallel macros that skip
# the NULL check, and that's too ugly. So we instead disable the warning.
# GCC 4.2.1 needs -Wno-address, but GCC 4.2 snapshots need -Wno-always-true.
# GCC 4.1.3 recognizes neither and exits with code 1 if they are given.
