hmm still quite a few warnings (I am guessing that this AND the other PR will make progress on more of these?)

ideally we could run the --with-cython-coverage on a build at some point. though would have to find a way to display this.

lgtm. can you rebase again, just want to see what kinds of warnings on build travis has now (this is the last in the series to remove warnings?)
Will rebase in a bit, ok.  But note that the build-related parts of the PR were reverted they broke on windows.
thank @jbrockmendel 
@jbrockmendel build warnings are almost gone now! thanks!
