I would be cleaner to put options to disable warnings in the make files, no?
Otherwise, you will get code riddled with compiler-dependent pragmas, which looks quite 
ugly for code that aims to be super-portable...
On the other hand, we loose the precision above (disable only for a region of code), but 
well, we can suppose Lua's coders know what they do in general... :)
