 * use gzipFormat instead of GZip to work around deprecation warning.

This is because zlib is deprecating the constructors for abstraction reasons; this change is obviously correct and is something I'd been meaning to get around to myself.

 * remove unused argument to readPrim

Looks good, simple refactoring.

 * minor clean up in TouchesFiles

This one isn't correct because the old code compared two paths allowing for the '/' separator between elements, whereas the new code will make a change to 'foo' be thought of as touching 'food' and vice-versa - 'foo' should only match against 'foo/d' etc.

 * silence a warning that happens when compiling witnesses

This is fine. I've also been meaning to suggest we should just drop OPTIONS_GHC from being used with -cpp/-XFoo, given that our minimum GHC is now 6.8 which should support all that.

 * enable -Werror for now
 On the one had, shipping release code without treating warnings as
 errors makes a lot of pragmatic sense.  On the other hand, during
 development it would be nice if we notice and deal with warnings as
 soon as possible.  Therefore, I would like to reenable the treatment
 of warnings as errors until the next release.

This is a policy decision and I'm not sure I agree with it, because of the variability between GHC 6.8, 6.10 and in the future GHC 6.12. But if we don't actually add -Werror we should all do better at cleaning up warnings we do notice.
