You can count my vote.

I would also add a paragraph like this:

  If possible code should complile cleanly with gcc's -Wall flag.
  Note however that this does not imply that it's OK to eliminate
  warnings simply by covering them up with typecasts, etc., as that
  actually does more harm than good.

I hope that wording is sufficiently unoffensive to the -Wall haters.

-Archie
