Part of the problem (when working from the command-line at least) is
how much output is generated, and how far you'd need to scroll back to
see the compilation of the file you've just changed.  For speed, I
spend much of the time only compiling the one file,  e.g. I'll run
'make epan/dissectors/packet-whatever.lo' until my changes compile.
This makes my affect on the number of warnings pretty obvious.

I think -Wdeclaration-after-statement is what you need.
