I agree. Which is why I have -w set on. I know that works.

I can't afford to query gcc to find out what options it has ..
because I can't be sure I'm even running gcc. I don't 
even know what OS I'm on .. could even be Windows using
MS compiler (though that's harder to make transparent :-)

So detecting things down to the level of gcc version
is plain absurd for this system.
