This kind of warnings is highly dependent on the compiler version used.
That's why it was not spotted so far, and why you are the first one to
report the issue (for example I'm using gcc 6.3.1 and I do not have this
warning).
Does replacing the line by the code below allows you to build?
const volatile char *exp_pdu_filename = NULL;

BR,
Pascal.
