Then everything's fine w.r.t. hardening. :-)

I would still recommend you disable -Werror though, in order to
not run into trouble at some later point in time. (As I said:
-Werror is really useful if you're developing the software, but
it should IMHO never be used for production builds.) But it's
not urgent to do so, especially if you plan on uploading newer
versions soon anyway.

(who will take a look at the package because it sounds really
interesting)
