Ah, cool ... didn't know C=1 before .. I will consider it in v2.

Is this what you mean?

make W=n [targets] Enable extra gcc checks, n=1,2,3 where
1: warnings which may be relevant and do not occur too often
2: warnings which occur quite often but may still be relevant
3: more obscure warnings, can most likely be ignored
Multiple levels can be combined with W=12 or W=123

Thanks!
