<div dir="ltr">/probably/ not worth worrying about changing the build system to disable/enable the flag - if there's pretty high confidence that you've built all the things and fixed all the warnings, it's OK to commit it and revert the patch if you missed.

I think i'll attempt the following approach:<br>
1. build all the llvm components i can with clang with the warning<br>
2. fix all related warnings, commit after review<br>
3. temporarily add -wno-error=cast-qual<br>
4. recommit<br>
5. revert -wno-error=cast-qual and see if anything breaks<br>
6. either revert previous commit, and fix newly-catched issues, or all good.<br>
