I'm not sure about that, but with previous Glib+ (2.8.3), there were
some errors on auto-generating (glib-mkenums or glib-genmarshal
emitted errors) nonetheless compilation passed IIRC. Hm.. is that
the problem more complicated, isn't that?

As for the Bugzilla, I see.

Well, it was just `-W' formerly, still works though, `-Wextra' is the
decent name,

    -Wextra
        (This option used to be called -W.  The older name is still
        supported, but the newer name is more descriptive.)  Print
        extra warning messages for these events:

    gcc-4.0.1                 2005-07-07                        GCC(1)

sure, combination of `-W' and `-Wall' would bring warnings fed you up.
But as I hardly expect a support for IRIX nowadays, I tend to be severe
about any trivial warnings on compilation for the sake of working binary
on IRIX, because if the problems happen I'll have to fix them by myself
finally. In addition, that option gives me warnings on other than unused
parameter.

Okay, long story short, that's my taste.
