In principle, I agree, but currently -- with egcs 1.1 -- I have a few
situations, where I get 'funny' warnings that aren't easily handled, e.g.
the -G related warnings on pmax and two places where egcs on the m(ac)68k
complains about bad alignment requirements that don't seem to be fatal.

To force compilation in those cases I have to change bsd.sys.mk, if I
cannot otherwise turn off -Werror.
