I agree that build don't break for this reason.

The issue is just a supplemental 'unrecognized command line option' warning for
each other warning emitted by gcc during make stage. The patch avoid this
supplemental warning by properly testing if gcc really support the option.
So with gcc-4.4, the patch divide by 2 the number of warning emitted during the
build.

That would be more clear with the diff of build log warnings but I can't do
that today.
With gcc-4.4, configure && make 2>log1
Then make clean, use the patch, autoreconf && ./configure && make 2>log2
Then diff -u log1 log2

If you have gcc-4.5 or gcc-4.6, you should have the same effect testing
-Wno-unused-local-typedefs option (added in gcc-4.7) to configure.ac.
