+<li>New command-line options have been added for the C and C++ compilers:
+  <ul>
+    <li><code>-Wimplicit-fallthrough</code> warns when a switch case falls
+        through.  This warning has five different levels.  The compiler is
+       able to parse a wide range of falls through comments, depending on
+       the level.  It also handles control-flow statements, such as ifs.
+       It's possible to suppres the warning by either adding a falls through
+       comment, or by using a null statement: <code>__attribute__
+       ((fallthrough));</code> (C, C++), or <code>[[fallthrough]];</code>
+        (C++17), or <code>[[gnu::fallthrough]];</code> (C++11/C++14).
+        This warning is enabled by <code>-Wextra</code>.</li>
+    <li><code>-Wpointer-compare</code> warns when a pointer is compared with
+        a zero character constant.  This code is now invalid in C++11 and
+       GCC rejects such code.  This warning is enabled by default.</li>
+    <li><code>-Wduplicated-branches</code> warns when an if-else has identical
+        branches.</li>
+    <li><code>-Wrestrict</code> warns when an argument passed to a
+        restrict-qualified parameter aliases with another argument.</li>
+    <li><code>-Wmemset-elt-size</code> warns for memset calls, when the first
+        argument references an array, and the third argument is a number equal
+       to the number of elements of the array, but not the size of the array.
+       This warning is enabled by <code>-Wall</code>.</li>
+    <li><code>-Wint-in-bool-context</code> warns about suspicious uses of
+        integer values where boolean values are expected.  This warning is
+       enabled by <code>-Wall</code>.</li>
+    <li><code>-Wswitch-unreachable</code> warns when a switch statement has
+        statements between the controlling expression and the first case label
+       which will never be executed.  This warning is enabled by default.</li>
+    <li><code>-Wexpansion-to-defined</code> warns when <code>defined</code> is
+        used outside <code>#if</code>.  This warning is enabled by
+       <code>-Wextra</code> or <code>-Wpedantic</code>.</li>
+    <li><code>-Wregister</code> warns about uses of <code>register</code>
+        storage specifier.  In C++17 this keyword has been removed and for 
C++17
+       this is a pedantic warning enabled by default.  The warning is not

+    <li><code>-Wvla-larger-than=N</code> warns about unbounded uses of
+        variable-length arrays, and about bounded uses of variable-length
+       arrays whose bound can be larger than <code>N</code> bytes.</li>
+    <li><code>-Wduplicate-decl-specifier</code> warns when a declaration
