             Bug #: 54724
           Summary: libgfortran does not respect --disable-werror
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.8.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: fortran
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: vapier@gentoo.org


the --disable-werror flag is very useful for distributions and dealing with a
myriad of build systems / versions / etc...  unfortunately, libgfortran doesnt
respect this flag.

# Add -Wall -fno-repack-arrays -fno-underscoring if we are using GCC.
if test "x$GCC" = "xyes"; then
  AM_FCFLAGS="-I . -Wall -Werror -fimplicit-none -fno-repack-arrays
-fno-underscoring"
  ...

Well, libgfortran only uses -Werror for the Fortran code. I think it is
extremely unlikely to trigger there. (That part uses no system-specific code.)

Using -Werror for libgfortran's C code would be nice, but it fails too often.
(I tried it once.) Thus, libgfortran's C code is compiled without -Werror by
default - even without an explicit --disable-werror.

Thus, I think your issue is rather hypothetical and I don't think it makes
sense to fix it.

i'm 50/50 on this.  if the code doesn't utilize anything beyond the local code
base, and isn't compiled/processed by anything other than the local compiler,
then the -Werror shouldn't be a problem.  but i noticed -Werror was being used
because some flags *were* causing warnings and so the build errored out (bug
54725).  granted, this warning was valid and it's good that it broke (otherwise
i might not have noticed as soon as i did), but in general, it's indeterminate
warnings like that why distros want to turn off -Werror in their builds.

(1) I think that using --disable-werror is a very bad idea.
(2) I cannot remember a single instance of libgfortran being broken because of
-Werror.

So I agree with Tobias:

Thus closing as WONTFIX.
