Which is irritating if you want to be able to blanket say
'-Wno-silly-compiler-warning' and not see any of that
warning regardless of compiler version. That's why the
gcc behaviour is the way it is (i.e. -Wno-such-thingy
is neither a warning nor an error if it would be the only
warning/error), and if clang doesn't match it that's a shame.
