Do you have a correct word?  I assume the goal is to have build work without 
warnings.  Thus if it does generate any warnings, something needs fixing and 
things will be cleaner if the attempted commit if rejected and fixed rather 
than being accepted and followed by another commit to fix the warning.

My local scripts grep for "warning".

I think there is a issue open on the bug that waf check gets errors but doesn't "fail" in the sense of returning a non-zero return code.

Would somebody please summarize.  Changing the default on building with debugging seems important enough that it should be mentioned (and archived) here rather than only on IRC where lots of people will miss it.
