-Werror should be an opt-in/out thing

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I would really like to se -Werror in your build system as an optin/out
thing (maybe some kind of --maintainer-mode?).
No buildsystem is perfect, and there is a lot of things that can give
warnings (like FORTIFY_SOURCE) even when there is nothing critical going wrong.
Why not have a flag for configure that makes it possible to opt-out?

I agree, "configure --without-werror" would be a useful feature.

Please feel free to send a patch...
