I disagree.  As has been shown many times in the past (and I suspect the
down-under constituent will show that at least a couple of the
'warnings' fixes will be wrong and hide bogus code), making -Wall a goal
causes people to cover up bad code with bad casts and such.

'-Wall' is *NOT* a good design goal.
