However, there are several cases where the following occurs:

SUBDIRSMAKEFLAGS += JAVACWARNINGSFATAL=true and this is not overridable on the command line. But it is! Use: make SUBDIRSMAKEFLAGS="" instead of SUBDIRSMAKEFLAGS="" make

I thnk you are missing the point. The above wipes out all of SUBDIRS_MAKEFLAGS, but all that is desired is to change the component of it that contains JAVAC_WARNINGS_FATAL=true. There is no way to do that from the command-line.
