Default GCC compiler options and how to change them

Hi there,

I've run into a blocker when trying to build wxPython that wasn't a 
problem when I last did it (which amittedly was over a year ago). Some 
-werror flags are being passed to GCC, but I can't see where they're 
coming from. Are there any defaults set for GCC that mean -werror might 
be turned on?

When I build wxPython on my host (Linux) system, I don't get the same 
issues, so I'm assuming there are defaults being set somewhere. If 
anyone could offer some help I'd be very appreciative.

Best,

Hamish
