Comment:

 I spot-checked the individual test files listed above.  It appears that in
 all, or almost all, cases, the tests that are "running with warnings" are
 ... tests that are testing warnings!

 Which suggests that `make warnings_tests` is not a very useful operation.
 Or, at least not until we have for PIR tests something that is the
 equivalent of IO::CaptureOutput::capture() which we use in Perl 5 tests.

 Since I doubt that many people have ever used `make warnings_tests` and
 since it would take a lot of work to make it do something useful, my
 recommendation is that we drop it.

 Thoughts?
