That is not what is being discussed. The configure script run 146 checks
to determine if gcc warning options are supported, but the emacs
configure script mentions a far smaller number.

Why are dozens of configure checks being run for things that emacs
configure does not care about, and whose only effect is to slow down
the build ?
