As I said on IRC I think it makes sense to turn them into errors once we 
fixed/silenced all the ones that we have now. That would help keeping 
the number of warning to 0.

If we consider that most of the developers want to see them, I'd prefer 
to have the warnings by default rather than having to use -Wd explicitly 
every time I run the tests (keep in mind that many developers out there 
don't even know/remember that now they should use -Wd).
