I think the problem is more that if you are trying to silence warnings,
you will end up being busy for a very long time since there are simply
too many possible configurations out there  [1].

For this reason, both Debian and openSUSE/SLE [2] build OpenJDK with the
configure parameter "--disable-warnings-as-errors".
