Hello,

what do people think about having libtool NOT suppress compiler output by 
default? Or alternatively having some mk.conf knob for the build 
infrastructure to conditionally turn -no-suppress on in all cases.

At minimum I think this is very useful to bulk builds (e.g., mysql5-client 
failed on the latest freebsd BB, but due to supression I have no clue what 
the problem was, and I am now unable to reproduce it).

I presume the reasoning behind the suppression is that if the first 
compilation succeeds with warnings, the second compilation is likely to do 
the same - and suppressing output from the second compilation of the same 
code reduces duplicate compiler warnings. But in cases where the results of 
the two compilations differ...
