Currently, there are a few “-Wall” flags floating around the stratego tree, but it might be nicer to have instead “-std=c89 -Wall -pedantic”. This will make the compiler warn on use of GCC extensions (e.g. nested functions), though with a little luck they’ll be gone soon enough anyway. ;)

STR-492, martin:
Yes, we should standardize this a bit in Stratego/XT. This can be done in autoxt.m4: just check for if GCC is yes, and then set some variable to these warning flags.

STR-492, martin:
Build system now gives warnings, buildfarm tests with -Werror and in the future we’ll even be C99 compatible if requested. That will be fixed as part of STR-613.
