I agree with Jeremy that we should try to get rid of all warnings, not
because warnings are errors (they mostly aren't) but because when we
ship something that produces a warning on a common platform (especialy
Linux) we get a pile of worried bug reports from people. Some people
even say "oh no, I better not install this, it had a warning".
It is easier to remove the warnings than to educate people on which
warnings matter and which don't.
Cheers, Andrew
