The purpose of this option is to enable building of cross compilers to
fail on warnings in the same circumstances on which a native build would
fail (with the expectation that the compiler used to build the cross
compiler is of the same version, probably current trunk, as the compiler
being built). We care, in that failures (given the right compiler used
for the build) are failures that would also occur for a corresponding
native configuration.
