Sure. Although, I'm not sure you want all of them... This is my
current configure alias:
alias pacfg='CFLAGS="-march=i686 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -Wclobbered
-Wempty-body -Wfloat-equal -Wignored-qualifiers -Wmissing-declarations
-Wmissing-parameter-type -Wmissing-prototypes -Wold-style-declaration
-Woverride-init -Wsign-compare -Wstrict-prototypes -Wtype-limits
-Wuninitialized" ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
--localstatedir=/var --enable-doc --enable-git-version --enable-debug'
That covers the options in -Wextra that give no warnings (after this
patch series) and a few more that I find interesting.
