the handling of unknown warning control options is BUGGED:
my clients could be using ANY recent variant of g++ and so I can't use
any new options or they won't be able to compile the code.
Then you've got a problem with no solution. Even if you manage
to convince people on this list that gcc should change the way
it handles unrecognized options, the change won't go into the
old compiler versions that you're concerned about. You'd better
find a way to reformulate your problem so that it does have a
solution.
