I don't like this at all. This means that we won't see ANY warnings triggered
by snippets in the docs. Shouldn't we ensure that the examples in the
documentation compile nicely without warnings (we shouldn't advocate code that
causes warnings!)?
To see the warnings, you'll then have to wade through thousands of log files...
Cheers,
Reinhold
