No way.
So default to "n"?

I am probably confusing the need for the dot in Debian control files

Feel free to fix as many build warning as you can. I'd really appreciate
that. But my x86_64 build of v4.0-rc4 is _almost_ warning free. And
that's nice. And I find -Werror (and littering Makefiles with
cc-disable-warning) just to remove the few warnings I still see plain
silly. I'm sure the same holds for other people and their builds too.
(This can be summarized as: NAK.)

Appreciate the review thanks.
