ewarns should be circumvented (make it work w/o them), IMHO.

I can imagine I'm not the only person who doenst want to keep
an close eye on each single build/merge.

In this concrete example, the package's build system is misdesigned.
They shouldn't rely on runtime benchmarks for build time decisions
in the first place - this is unpredictable. But this is not an
issues distros should have to cope with.
