#190 -- which is a cherry-pick of a patch from @rurban from 2 years ago -- appears to clear up most of these warnings. Here is my before/after comparison:

With one more commit to the gpp-build-time-warnings-20210505 branch (#190), we can reduce the remaining number of g++ build-time warnings from 3 to 2.

So on both platforms g++ is now emitting -Wregister warnings related to C++17. Context (from the FreeBSD run):

NYTProf.xs: In function ‘int dopopcx_at(PerlInterpreter*, PERL_CONTEXT*, I32, UV)’:
NYTProf.xs:1281:28: warning: ISO C++17 does not allow ‘register’ storage class specifier [-Wregister]
 1281 |     register PERL_CONTEXT *cx;
      |                            ^~
NYTProf.xs: In function ‘PERL_CONTEXT* visit_contexts(PerlInterpreter*, UV, int (*)(PerlInterpreter*, PERL_CONTEXT*, UV*))’:
NYTProf.xs:1407:18: warning: ISO C++17 does not allow ‘register’ storage class specifier [-Wregister]
 1407 |     register I32 cxix = cxstack_ix;
      |                  ^~~~
NYTProf.xs:1408:28: warning: ISO C++17 does not allow ‘register’ storage class specifier [-Wregister]
 1408 |     register PERL_CONTEXT *cx = NULL;
      |                            ^~
NYTProf.xs:1409:28: warning: ISO C++17 does not allow ‘register’ storage class specifier [-Wregister]
 1409 |     register PERL_CONTEXT *ccstack = cxstack;
      |                            ^~~~~~~

I don't follow C++ development. Is there anyone who could shed some light on this?

When compiled with a perl built with g++, there now remain two
'-Wwrite-strings' warnings which look like this:

    ISO C++ forbids converting a string constant to char*

Increment $VERSION to 6.12_004 for additional trial release.

The 4 -Wregister warnings should be gone as of version 6.13 of Devel-NYTProf, uploaded just now to CPAN. That should leave the 2 -Wwrite-strings warnings.

  Changes in Devel::NYTProf 6.14 - 18th Oct 2023
    There should be no significant differences in the performance of
    Devel-NYTProf from that of the previous release. This release is
    primarily maintenance- focused.

    More build-time warnings using recent versions of C compilers have been
    eliminated, particularly with recent production releases of Perl. Thanks
    to Karl Williamson for guidance on updating ppport.h and using it to
    update NYTProf.xs.

  Changes in Devel::NYTProf 6.13 - 10th Oct 2023
    There should be no significant differences in the performance of
    Devel-NYTProf from that of the previous release. This release is
    primarily maintenance- focused.

    The largest difference in the distribution is the removal of the
    nytprofpf program (GH 206
    <timbunce/devel-nytprof#206>). This program was
    written for an open-source software competition which is no longer being
    held.

    Other changes include:

    Removal of remaining reference to Travis CI (GH 202
    <timbunce/devel-nytprof#202>).

    Elimination of 'bad-function-cast' warnings during 'make' (GH 205
    <timbunce/devel-nytprof#205>).

    Correction of typographic error in nytprofhtml thanks to Amory Meltzer
    (GH 210 <timbunce/devel-nytprof#210>).

    Depending on Per version, skip one test file that was exercising 'given'
    and 'when' keywords (now deprecated) (GH 211
    <timbunce/devel-nytprof#211>).

    Elimination of the 'register' keyword from NYTProf.xs (partial
    resolution of GH 191
    <timbunce/devel-nytprof#191>) which is
    forbidden as of ISO C++17.
