-Wextra will need some further rework for 32bit architectures to avoid
some warnings.
(At least mips for which I tested it)

I don't think -Werror is appropriate. If we want to test the functioning
of nolibc with weird compilers these may very well add new warnings and
that shouldn't break the build.
