If you're using autotools, you could do the following as a workaround.
In configure.ac:
AC_ARG_ENABLE(warnings-as-errors,
AC_HELP_STRING(--enable-warnings-as-errors,Treat warnings as errors
(default off),
[WARN_IS_ERR="$enableval"], [WARN_IS_ERR="no"])
AM_CONDITIONAL(WARN, test "$WARN_IS_ERR" = yes)
In Makefile.am:
if C_WARN
AM_CFLAGS += -Werror
endif
If you do that, then run configure with --enable-warnings-as-errors,
you'll get -Werror on your compiler command line, and not otherwise.
If you don't use autotools, you could just say make CFLAGS='-Werror',
which would also work.
