Isnt it a good idea to set this in the pre-release versions? It might catch
potential problems and people trying to compile unreleased software from
source should be able to change it/report a bug if necessary.
I wouldnt think of considering it for a release version, but thats a different
thing (as you will very likely use it with newer compilers and stuff)
