The last time the warnings, etc, thing came up, the consensis was:

In development mode, all practical warnings turned on.
In release mode, turn them off.  It's no use scaring the users about 
something they have little or no control over.

Personally, I'd be quite happy to have -Werror turned on during
development, providing that it doesn't make it into any releases.

Cheers,
-Peter
