Personally I think we should have a flag to be pasted on configure for this such as "--ignore-warnings" , it could even default to no-ignore-warnings, and a wiki page added to tell them how to bypass warnings causing errors on special cases. Doing it automatically implied there not issues were found.

Now, being a reactionary zealot who likes to scream a lot, I'll obviously take the opportunity to point out that it's most likely Amazon's fault ... but in the mean time I don't think it's overly useful to tell that to users. So, I'm suggesting we remove the warnings==error setting for distributed tarballs. (we already support doing this in the build system) Essentially, the way it works is that it looks for a .bzr dir... if it finds one, score, you are a developer and should be notified of warnings. If it doesn't - you're building from a tarball and it should not bomb out on warnings. Does anyone have strong opinions?
