Automatic detection of gcc warnings has been implemented for a while now, just not switched on by default. The code is in config/auto/ warnings.pm and I added it to trunk in r21522. This greatly reduces the burden on warnings flag maintenance. Anyway, I'd like the code to be on by default and to rip the old stuff out. Can I? Huh? Huh? Please? Paul
