From: Christophe de Dinechin <dinec...@redhat.com>

The objective of these guidelines is that:
- We avoid introducing new warnings
- We know how to fix old ones
- We don't have to isolate whitespace changes when submitting patches,
  i.e. someone who use tools that automatically strip whitespaces and
  therefore "repairs" earlier errors should not be punished for it.

+Compilation
+-----------
+
+The source code should compile without warnings on all variants of GCC and 
clang available.
+A patch may be rejected if it introduces new warnings.
+Warnings that appear over time due to improvements in compilers should be 
fixed in dedicated patches. A patch should not mix warning fixes and other 
changes.
+Any patch may adjust whitespace (e.g. eliminate trailing whitespace). 
Whitespace adjustments do not require specific patches.
