Fine (though GCC could have something similar to -Werror but more 
limited in scope to the really serious stuff that *should* be illegal 
even if it isn't), but it should at least be a separate warning class.

My point was to counter Segher's assertion that the compiler currently 
gives an error on the obvious stuff.
