IMO, this is a good reason to not have WARNS contain -Werror at this
time. NO_WERROR is a good way to fix this (again IMO). I see a great
need to let warnings "hang out", and in an ideal world I see an need
for (new) warnings to break things. I see no need for warnings to
hold back a project as important as GCC3, and NO_WERROR is the
cleanest solution.

I do not expect others to agree with (or like) this.
