Parrot fails to build in the current macppc bulk, same as:
> http://build-failures.rhaalovely.net/mips64/2020-04-11/lang/parrot.log I already had to provide a workaround `-Werror', but this time i'm proposing to remove all warnings. Note that 'Configure.pl' provides a `--ccwarn' flag, but these flags are placed before the warnings, so it doesn't work. Putting `-w' at the end of the flags generated by `Configure.pl' does not work as well. REVISION bump is needed, because `-maccumulate-outgoing-args' and `-falign-functions' are zapped. I've read the docs about these flags, and i don't get why they are here to start with. I've run the tests on amd64 and macppc [0], and there is no difference between the two archs, and between tests i did with my previous fix; 1 failure out of 47763 tests. Comments/feedback are welcome, Charlène.
