it's fixed in the redboot_ROM.ecm of your target so you need to either import that or 
modify the ecc by hand. I don't like linux_exec being enabled by default either.

I think all I had to do is what's in the attahced patch, besides what you mention.
Most are warning fixes only those in redboot are errors IIRC.

I did not see anything particular.
