 -Werror breaks the build in pkgtools/digest. -pedantic-errors can only
 be worse.
 
 Also, injecting warning options tends to break autoconf scripts, and
 injecting this particular combination for its intended purpose will
 definitely break a lot of autoconf scripts.
 
 I have been doing my test builds with -Wall -Wno-error (this too
 occasionally breaks autoconf scripts) but this doesn't help until
 something else actually causes the compile to fail.
 
 If you can think of a way to inject -Wall -Werror reliably into real
 compiles and not autoconf tests, I'm all ears.
