Sorry for the delay, I was waiting to see if Jon had any opinion on this.
To me it seems these are relevant warnings that sould always be printed, but I'm
not too sure.

In any case, I'll work on a v2 implementing the mapping I talked about on this
patch, and fixing the warnings I can, and if there are any left, I'll make it
only output on W=2 then.

Thanks,
Nícolas
