Right? -Wdefault means -Wonce or -Walways? If the former, I don't expect many warnings to be emitted.

Confusingly, neither of these: default, once, module, and always are all different settings.

once: once per process (regardless of location) module: once per module (regardless of line) default: once per location (line+module combination) always: every time

Still, even with once-per-location behaviour, the warning overhead should be minimal.

Cheers, Nick.
