That's a neat idea, however, any use of -Werror is going to abort the build prematurely, right? So we'll only be capturing the details of the first instance of a warning being emitted if we rely on -Werror, when I think it's more useful if NMI could give us all the warnings that were emitted.
But I'm still open to adding an additional btest that uses -Werror that would be useful at getting developers to think twice about filing a merge request for code that breaks tests because of warnings.
