Hi, the warning does not show with latest versions of binutils, it was
fixed with this (binutils) commit:

    commit f995bbe8e62fdb5607acb1ee127240cfe50d2b8f
    Author: Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
    Date:   Wed Apr 5 19:21:33 2017 +0100

        -Wwrite-strings: Constify struct disassemble_info's
		disassembler_options field

Distributions with recent binutils (Ubuntu 18.04, Fedora 29 at least)
should not have this message. I thought about sending the same patch
some time ago, but in the end Jakub and I decided that it may not be
worth casting the const away to silence the warning just for older
distributions. Daniel also shared the same opinion at the time (but that
was off the mailing-list).
