The zephyr notice structure in <zephyr/zephyr.h> needs to be changed.  The
ZNotice_t structure contains a field with an enum type (ZNotice_Kind_t).
This structure is sent over the net, and it is not safe to rely on enums
being 4 bytes.  It should be declared an integer or a union with an integer
to force it to be 4 bytes long.
