clang's -Weverything is like an options lamp test. There's an
enormous number of things there, and many aren't even properly
documented. You really don't want to use it -- the sheer number of
things you'll need to disable is astonishing, and with every new
iteration of clang there's an ocean more flags there. I think this
solution should be avoided.
