No. With -Werror, upstream indicates that if a warning occurs, the build 
should fail and the resulting code not be installed on user systems.

Instead, someone knowledgeable should look at the situation *first* and 
determine whether it is a bogus warning, a trivial issue, or something which 
warrants further attention.

I have long disagreed with QA policy on this, and think that ebuilds should 
respect upstream here. Of course giving users the ability to override.


Best regards,
