Why not just do it if compiling PIC code?  (i.e. so the warning will
end up in a shlib but not in the .a.)  Will that have the right
effect?

you'll still end up with warnings from the ld.*so programs, because
they link with libc_pic.a, but that's not so bad.

do __warn_references() have to be in the same file that defines the
symbol?  maybe a special object file containing only warnings like
this, that gets included in the shared library...
