Bump WARNS to 6.

FYI, this broke the tinderbox on arm, ia64, mips, and sparc64.
Errr. Reverted. I built it on the architectures I had access to...
For WARNS-related changes, I generally use "make universe" to test
across architectures. This builds all of our architectures world +
all available kernels, and seems the most effective way to avoid the
above situations. (I've fallen into exactly the same trap...)
The one thing to be cautious about is that make universe won't fail
if an individual build fails, so you need to check the logs to make
sure everything actually succeeded.
The trouble with make universe is that it has been broken for months
and months now. ARM and powerpc64 are disconnected from the build
entirely, as are big-endian and 64-bit MIPS, and an increasing number
of ARM and PowerPC kernels depend on FDT tools not built by default,
and so do not build. Build infrastructure changes also make it appear
that the PowerPC GENERIC64 kernel is broken when it is not. This
severely reduces the coverage of make universe for problems like this.
I have a patch at http://people.freebsd.org/~nwhitehorn/universe.diff
that fixes both of these problems, by teaching the universe rule in
src/Makefile about MACHINEs with multiple MACHINE_ARCHs and by
enabling the build of the FDT tools by default, which adds about 300K
to world. The way these are done is probably not optimal, but it is a
better than the current situation and is a good stopgap. With the
patch, all architectures succeed except for the ARM AVILA kernel,
which seems genuinely broken, and the various 64-bit MIPS kernels,
since 64-bit MIPS is not hooked up to the build yet. If I don't hear
any objections, I would like to commit it on Wednesday the 22nd.
That works for me. As far as I can tell, doing the MIPS64 stuff will
just take about a day of patiently fixing some breakage... Maybe I'll
get to it over the holidays.
