Don't bother, because you'll likely be introducing warnings for other
compilers than VC++.

Its a fact of life that GCC, Clang, Intel C++, Microsoft all have 
different
ideas about what leads up to a warning.

Also, compile mode (32- vs 64-bit) can engage different warnings.  We've
taken care of the ones that could be taken care off.

Finally, some warnings appear in code that is not finished, and are
intentionally left in as a reminder.
