Yes, I do it for my component, GDB has -Werror default in development phases
upstream.  It cleans up the code, it finds various minor bugs etc.

So the maintainers either care about the warnings - and then they should use
-Werror - or they do not care about the warnings - and then it does not matter
regarding warning messages which and how many of them can be found on the Koji
server in the log files.  Please decide.


As always I guess it should be per maintainer / per package.  Something like
default -Werror with easy opt-out.  And we can forget about hiding the
compilation commands useful for toolchain troubleshooting.
