That assumes that the developer in question isn't too busy hacking to 
check for warnings (in all honesty that developer probably would've been 
me ;)). Sure, you should always check for warnings but if we can save 
this developer some time by giving them a clear run-time indication 
aside from the compile-time warning then that would not be a bad thing. 
I've been there myself a few times and I know times in the past where 
this would've saved me the time it takes to rebuild and redeploy the 
kernel once.

Thanks,
Tomas
