I guess that for e.g. next version of Fedora, I can go around getting
the warnings free patches for this libraries into at least the distro
versions of these modules so at least a --with-system on fedora > fc5
would work with warnings as errors enabled, and I assume that other
distros could do the same. The problem would be using --with-system-foo
on existing releases :-(

Have you already submitted the "fix warnings" patches for these
libraries into their respective bug tracking systems, so that the next
releases of those libraries themselves will include the warning
fixes :-) ?

This would be a good idea, especially is organized so that someone who
wishes to create an install set for qaing a workspace can generate a
"Hamburg QA" compatible workspace for various platforms by submitting a
job to build it and auto move it to somewhere where it can be
downloaded.
