Speaking as the pkgsrc maintainer for otr, I would be happy to see
configure add in heavy -Werror etc. as long as configure is sure to do
that for gcc or other recognized compilers, and doesn't misbehave if the
compiler happens to be clang or something else (which probably needs
different extra options).  I believe the autoconf norm is to recognize
gcc and then add options, and if so that's totally fine.
