As far as I know when gcc 5.* started to report new issues we fixed
them in Fedora and backported them when they made sense.
I really am a fan of fixing compiler warnings, they very often do point
out something that needs attention. I also really would like to know
what the advantage of a new configure option is over users being able
to set their own CFLAGS with -Wno-error included if they feel that is
necessary.
Cheers,
Mark
