ac_compile_warnings

Set the maximum warning verbosity according to C and C++ compiler used. Currently supports g++ and gcc.

The compiler options are always added CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS even if these are overidden at configure time. Removing the maximum warning flags can be removed with --without-maximum-compile-warnings. For example:

   ./configure --without-maximum-compile-warnings CFLAGS= CXXFLAGS=

AC_DEFUN([AC_COMPILE_WARNINGS], [
AC_MSG_CHECKING([maximum warning verbosity option])
  AC_REQUIRE([AC_PROG_CC])
