Yes, if the idea is to add something to help debug GCC itself, or help GCC
devs, please don't spell it -Wxxx so it doesn't look like something that
users should care about.
As someone doing lots of support via gcc-help, #gcc@freenode, stackoverflow

-Weverything was not meant to be used on user code.
