Done.

It might be good for development or continuous integration, where
upstream is in charge of fixing things. But for software uploaded to
Debian, I don't think it's the Debian maintainer's job to fix all new
warnings a package may trigger. That's why I think -warn-error
(especially -warn-error A) should not be used in released software.
