 To me the output of compiler warnings tells: bad code (again)! A developer
 could improve his or her code. For me, and probably most other end-users,
 it would be more useful to see **good** code. Is there no way to tell
 Make, CMake, or whatever, to add this or that set of compiler warning
 options only when a keyword is supplied? Was the code in last millennium
 so much better than today that I hardly saw warnings?
