I recommend putting warning flags in a separate variable, e.g. WARN_CFLAGS, which is not used during ./configure checks but only when building (parts of) the project code. That way, -Werror can be used, which I find helpful since I can mentally ignore the compilation output since I know I will be interrupted if there is anything real to pay attention to. /Simon
