Even if they're from the same source, they might not accept the same flags.

In *most* cases, that's an indication that you have a mismatched 
C-compiler/C++-compiler pair, and the autoconf script reports it as such with a 
warning, but, in two cases, it's expected - one compiler might accept 
-Wmissing-prototypes or -Wmissing-declarations when the other doesn't.

Are we really encountering a case where the C compiler accepts 
-Wshorten-64-to-32 but the C++ compiler doesn't, or *vice versa*?  Or are we 
encountering a case where *neither* compiler accepts it, but CMake isn't 
detecting that?
