Note that currently the difference between devel/stable version is

- different compiler options: -O2 for stable (so that people do not
  ask again and again :), full warnings for gcc (-Wall -ansi).

- --with-warnings is enabled, meaning that the #warning directives are
    enabled. This is the one I am worried about, even for x.x.non-zero
    versions, which would be public in Allan's scheme (that I like
    too).

So, we have to make-up our mind here.
