 2.17 Control Warnings: '-W', '--warn', '--no-warn', '--fatal-warnings'
 ======================================================================
 
 'as' should never give a warning or error message when assembling
 compiler output.  But programs written by people often cause 'as' to
 give a warning that a particular assumption was made.  All such warnings
 are directed to the standard error file.
 
    If you use the '-W' and '--no-warn' options, no warnings are issued.
 This only affects the warning messages: it does not change any
 particular of how 'as' assembles your file.  Errors, which stop the
 assembly, are still reported.
 
    If you use the '--fatal-warnings' option, 'as' considers files that
 generate warnings to be in error.
 
    You can switch these options off again by specifying '--warn', which
 causes warnings to be output as usual.
