hostcc files patch for the reported issue

These seemed hidden/resolved in 1.26.1 to now, and some from back then (lxdialog's checklist menubox and util) remain resolved, but with 1.32+ these warnings are back on a Cygwin host compile:

I found an old thread where Denys supplied a potential fix for fixdep and I applied similar to docproc and the others, so here's an updated version of that patch covering all of the above.
