This adds a configure option, --enable-gcc-compile-warnings which controls which CFLAGS to pass to gcc. It defaults to -Wall but can with the configure argument be turned to different levels.

I think i kinda over-did-it, but hey.

I had something quite close laying around from another project so i picked the whole thingie.

You don't really need a new option to use specific CFLAGS (or others). Just pass them to the configure script (or make) directly:

./configure CFLAGS='...'

or

make CFLAGS='...'

I always build with -Wall -Wextra -pedantic using the first variant (which means I only have to set the right options once).
