Hi,

during some GNU internal discussion I was asked to post my proposal / request 
here.

"I use manywarnings.m4 in my projects which take ~9s here (~25% of the whole 
./configure run).
One gcc invocation per (possible) warning options sums up a lot.

  gcc -Q --help=warning|awk '{ if ($2 == "[disabled]") print $1 }'
gives a complete list of available warning options which we can use without 
checking each single option.
This also takes automatic advantage of new gcc warnings."


I took a look at the source but feel somewhat incompetent to provide a patch 
(m4 and shell is just not my competence). It seems to be a pretty low-hanging 
fruit for an expert, though.

I really would enjoy a faster manywarnings.m4 !

Regards, Tim
