-Werror causes warnings to stop the compile as if the warnings were errors.  
I use it all the time with a number of warnings turned on:

CFLAGS =    -O2 -ansi -pipe -Wall -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith \
            -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes \
            -Wformat -Wmissing-prototypes -funsigned-char \
            -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib \
            -Dscanf=DONT_USE_SCANF -Dgets=DONT_USE_GETS \
            -Werror
