My work on this has been on hold for the last week, but I am planning to augment the current mechanism for tweaking the flags with a command-line option that will be usable to quickly disable the feature without having to edit configure.ac. E.g.: > autoreconf -f -i > ./configure --no-default-warnings I'm still not sure on the exact naming of the option.
