I have alpha, sparc64, and a few more so we can get pretty good coverage
before it hits -next.
If we enable more build coverage then please address all W=1 warnings

I for once always builds with W=1 these days, and I see more and more
warnings sneaking in again.
So lets try to keep the noise level down.
