Thanks, Jose! Fixed at 325f1429.

Another question: from googling it seems that the command

  python -W error foobar.py

would give an error (which hopefully would stop the build).

I haven't tested, but would the way to ask our build systems to use the
flag be to use the PYTHON environment variable? (./configure --help
tells me this is used)?

I'm pretending that I will add this flag, but I'm secretly hoping you
will add it and fix all warnings before I even see them ;)
