It seems that the consensus is to enable COMPILE_TEST on all platforms, so I'll do that. > If we enable more build coverage then please address all W=1 warnings > first. > > I for once always builds with W=1 these days, and I see more and more > warnings sneaking in again. > So lets try to keep the noise level down.

W=1 doesn't play well with that :-S I'll see if I can turn the additional warnings into non-errors, but that may become a game of whack-a-mole. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
