[classlib][natives] Treat warnings as errors on unix

[Mark Hindess <ma...@googlemail.com>]

I've fixed most of the warnings that I see on linux/x86 and linux/x86_64
so I'd like to apply the patch attached to:

  https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-5885

I'll give people a several days to test it and apply it sometime next
week unless I hear any objections.

(The main motivation for me is that the warnings are usually valid
and often cause problems when porting 32-bit to 64-bit or to new
platforms/compilers.)

Regards,
 Mark.

Go for it. I'll fix the build on x86_64/gcc-4.1.2 in case it fails. I worry 
about Itanium though, last time I built DRLVM on that architecture there were 
quite a lot of warnings and I doubt that they were fixed.
