-# NOTE gcc does not fail if you pass a non-existent -Wno-* option as an
-# argument. However, it will happily fail if you pass the corresponding -W*
-# option. So, we check whether options that disable warnings exist by testing
-# the availability of the corresponding option that enables the warning. This
