Comment (by igloo):

 gcc, from which I assume we get the name `-Wall`, says in its info page:
 {{{
 The following `-W...' options are not implied by `-Wall'.  Some of
 them warn about constructions that users generally do not consider
 questionable, but which occasionally you might wish to check for;
 others warn about constructions that are necessary or hard to avoid in
 some cases, and there is no simple way to modify the code to suppress
 the warning.
 }}}
 While it is poorly named, I think that the above list plus `-fwarn-
 monomorphism-restriction` fall into the same category.
