Indeed, but that flag is never set in Qt. I can imagine some embedded system 
integrators might want to turn it on to save on library size, but it's a non-
standard build.

Warnings are unconditional and will remain so in Qt. They indicate misuse of 
the API.

But other code can use warnings for other reasons and we can't make the 
decision for them. KDE has used warnings for a long time to tell developers 
about unexpected situations. That's why a couple of years ago I made kWarning 
use QtDebugMsg level instead.
