[llvm] r234343 - Enable W4 warnings by default for MSVC builds

[Kaylor, Andrew]

I'm not sure I understand.  Are you saying this problem only happens if you have CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS defined to include W3?

I don't have CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS defined on my system and my version of CMake (3.0.1) isn't defining it on its own, which would explain why I'm not seeing the problem.  I guess your patch to strip W3 if it's there is OK, though it should probably also look for W1 and W2.

On the other hand, if there isn't some non-user reason that W3 would be part of CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS I would say this fall under the "don't do that" category of fix.

When I do that, the first line of output shows /W3:


E:\llvm\x64>"D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" amd64

E:\llvm\x64>cmake -G "Visual Studio 12" ..\llvm CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS =  /DWIN32 /D_WINDOWS /W3 /GR /EHsc ....
