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!
