Those producing the warnings != those seeing the build breakage.

We've been reporting an incredibly large number of warnings on Solaris  
10 in --std=gnu99 mode (which had become necessary, unfortunately),  
fixing which would seem to require a major refactoring of the  
softfloat support iirc.

And yes, there is at least one warning on Darwin, outside Cocoa. I'll  
take a look at that later.

Other packages restrict such flags to an --enable-maintainer-mode  
configure flag btw.
