I'm all for this.  I think we should file a RFE in the BZ.  I'll try
to look at it.

With trunk gcc I'm seeing a few -Wstrict-aliasing warnings, two
-Wstrict-aliasing and two -Wformat warnings (x86_64).  So we'd need to
fix these...

However, with --enable-all-warnings, there are tons of various
warnings coming from e.g. -Wcast-qual, -Wsign-compare, etc.  So it'd be
impossible to use those two together.
