The option -Werror makes warnings fatal. With the more thorough

the idea of ascribing a numerical value to NULL seems sufficiently
objectionable to deserve fatality.
so if i understand correctly now in gcc 4.1 all warnings are treated
as errors and it will not let the link phase happen and hence the
build will fail.

No, look for the message like "warnings treated as errors" which means
that -Werror is set, then, if you wish, figure out how to over-ride with
-Wno-error, or by removing stuff in your build procedure which sets
-Werror. For example, the libcpp and libstdc++ builds contains a
Makefile macro WERROR, which can be removed so that -Wno-error persists.
