Makes sense.  I've seen some warnings that are disabled by optimization, and 
others that are enabled by it.

So, if I want to get all warnings that GCC can emit for any given software, is 
there a list of optimization levels on which I should compile?  Is -O0 and -O3 
enough for everything?  Or should I also build with all intermediate 
optimization levels?

Thanks

Alex
