Documenting the current way would certainly be good, as at the moment one is left with the impression that something automatic exists when it doesn't. I think that this use of -Werror is a good one: given that every project will have its list of warnings that it ignores, presumably one does want to check before a release that no active warning flag is generating any warnings. -- http://rrt.sc3d.org
