End result is the same. I failed to recognize this  level of
indirection:


        XORG_CWARNFLAGS would be updated to call these two and set 
        CWARNFLAGS="$(CFLAGS_WARNINGS) $(CFLAGS_NO_STRICT_ALIASING)"


This has nice advantages, and will help with the conversion so as long
as
XORG_CWARNFLAGS is set back to it's original value eventually. The
reason is that somewhere
in the future, either CFLAGS_WARNINGS or CFLAGS_NO_STRICT_ALIASING could
get changed.
This would unfortunately change the value of XORG_CWARNFLAGS still used
in previous versions
of modules or in modules outside the X.Org "in the wild".

By not touching XORG_CWARNFLAGS at all, we eliminate any risk, not to
mention possible confusion.

Once this point is settled, a patch can be submitted for review, along
with a plan for converting modules.

Thanks!

Gaetan
