This warning is IMHO obsolete because the code in question should not
be executed at all (mNVisibleLines == 1). However, the compiler seems
to substitute this with '__builtin_memset(...)' and analyzes "correctly"
that memory at offset 4 would be overwritten but not that the written
size would be 0.

The "fix" uses a compiler macro and #if to clarify that this code must
not be executed and should not be compiled (see comment why this code
exists).
