I want to know if it is advisable to work on the source code running:

It depends on your intention.
I assume that you will hit the one or the other warning during your
build which is then handled as an error. Then you need to fix the
warning to continue your build.
Fixing these warnings would be really cool. While fixing the issues you
would get some inside in the code and the dicussions on the possible
fixes would you bring together with other developers.
If this is your intention, then using --enable-werror is a good thing.
If your intention is to work on something else, then using
--enable-werror might be a blocking issue.
Best regards, Oliver.
