Tested this patchset on FreeBSD with clang 3.1.

Had a warning like that when building examples:

gmake[2]: Entering directory `/usr/home/novel/code/libvirt/examples/openauth'
  CC       openauth-openauth.o
  CCLD     openauth
clang: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-g' [-Wunused-command-line-argument]
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/home/novel/code/libvirt/examples/openauth'

The problem was fixed by this change:

diff --git a/m4/virt-compile-warnings.m4 b/m4/virt-compile-warnings.m4

I still have another warning in gnulib:

CC regex.lo
In file included from regex.c:70:
./regex_internal.c:1397:11: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false [-Wtautological-compare]
if (idx < 0 || idx >= set->nelem)
    ~~~ ^ ~
1 warning generated.

But I'm not sure it affects the build with -Werror because I don't use
it since it still fails at gcrypt.h deprecated stuff anyways (and I
haven't test a fix for that with clang I posted in other thread).
