But when "gcc -Wall" reports 10 warnings to me, and I don't notice
that one of them is an actual bug because I mentally discard all of
them "oh these new warnings must all be false positives by gcc",
there is something wrong in the way I worked.

This happened to me today, with a full gnulib testdir.

Hence my wish to silence the gcc warnings in gnulib, on recent glibc
systems with recent gcc versions.

I'm not talking about clang here. Clang produces tons of warnings, too
much to be useful for my average use.
