I can't remember what went in where, but I think the features in the
development version of the compiler are sufficient for this (modulo
spurious warnings about CL functions that I don't understand). I put
in what I thought was necessary/sufficient from experience.

That's the sort of thing I mean about working against the compiler.
There have been a fair number of bugs in Gnus &c due to silencing
errors which were meaningful.

I said I spoke from experience with it, and I can't see that it needs
anything more than understanding and care from developers (who
unfortunately don't seem to be much interested in what's shipped with
Emacs).
I think the thing about using the wrong path is a non-issue. In the
Gnus files I had time to work on some months ago, as far as I remember
I cleanly eliminated all the compiler warnings when using the
then-development Emacs (without any of its ill-advised build stuff).
Since XEmacs doesn't appear to have such facilities, you guard use of
XEmacs stuff rather than Emacs, of course.
