gcc now has:

   -Werror=
       Make the specified warning into an error.  The specifier for a
       warning is appended, for example -Werror=switch turns the warnings
       controlled by -Wswitch into errors.  This switch takes a negative
       form, to be used to negate -Werror for specific warnings, for
       example -Wno-error=switch makes -Wswitch warnings not be errors,
       even when -Werror is in effect.

There's quite a few warnings we could reasonably promote to errors like 
this.  FESCO would be happy to listen to a proposal for such, if anyone 
feels like doing the research.
