FWIW, flameeyes' blog has a lot of this sort of content, and with his 
autotools mythbuster and similar content as well, I gather there's at 
least some upstream eyes following it.

So that's a bit of a start for anyone looking for such information right 
now, as well as reasonable research for anyone else considering writing 
such a guide who might want some other references or quote-worthy 
material.

I believe he has specifically covered -Werror too.  I know he mentioned 
it (with a link to /something/, of his or not I didn't check) in a recent 
entry.
