For the record, I am fairly opposed to a warning on normal use of a standard 
function.

I'm not very concerned about users using different target flags across TUs 
because this is already a massive foot gun and I do not buy that we are making 
things materially worse.

Instead, by having opinionated on-by-default warnings we encourage users to not 
care or proactively distrust our warnings. Users will use that functions in 
headers as a lot of people like to put most of their implementation in headers.

Don't get me wrong, I think diagnosing actual ODR-violation is a worthwhile 
goal, and as @AaronBallman mentioned
there are ways to do that (modules, asan, build system warning on inconsistent 
flags), but from within a single TU
we don't have a way to detect actual ODR issues, so we would end up forcing our 
opinions on users, which I'm not sure is marginally better than not 
implementing the feature at all.

I don't think this feature warrants deviating from our policy that on-by 
default warnings should be actionable and have a low false-positive rate, nor 
the complexity to actually produce the warning.

If we get users reporting issue with that feature, then we can always emit a 
deprecation warning.
