+      <para>
+        Most of the modules in this release use stricter compiler flags,
+        when used with the GNU gcc, LLVM clang, Oracle Solaris Studio, or
+        Intel compilers.   These flags both enable more warnings, and
+        promote some warnings to fatal errors in the build.   If these
+        flags cause your build to fail, you can disable the flags that
+        turn these selected warnings into errors by adding
+        <option>--disable-selective-werror</option> to the configure command
+        for the affected module.
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+        Builders seeking even stricter compiler checks can instead pass
+        <option>--enable-strict-compilation</option> to the configure command
+        to make all warnings become errors.
