Currently warnings are only activated by --enable-debug, with the assumption
that all developers use --enable-debug and users don't (and don't care about warnings).

I pointed this out to coolo (IIRC) some time ago, highlighting the fact that enable-debug
is very diskspace consuming, and the answer was that we could go for a
--enable-warnings.
Being lazy I hacked acinclude.m4.in locally instead ;)
