I'm pretty sure that -Wall should never be used with -Werror, because
-Wall is a grab bag of unconnected warnings. The official doc is "all
the warnings about constructions that some users consider
questionable, and that are easy to avoid (or modify to prevent the
warning)".

So, I think that warnings-as-errors makes sense, but not in
conjunction with -Wall. I guess no-one wants to start the bikeshed
discussion about which warnings should be on, though.
