I agree. And since Allegro is one of the few packages which wants to
be built by non-developers, it strikes me that arranging for the
``normal'' build to not use *any* warnings, not even -Wall, would be
The Right Thing. Once the package has been developed and released,
there's no need to use -Wall, since any bugs that those warnings might
find are supposed to be squashed already.
So, you could have a build-debug: target in the Makefile that would
use any level of warnings you see fit, but the usual build will not
use that target.
