This was added on request by Steve, to help with the time64 changes.

This is a bug, which I should fix.

I'd be fine with that.

My impression is that this was done as part of the time64 checks? If
not, and the consensus is to disable the flag, I'm very unlikely to
drive this, and someone else will need to do those rebuilds and post
results.

I think making the opt-out functional might be enough to help with
this, and I could upload a fix later today, which would not disarm
this safety net for the time64 transition. But at this point I don't
mind either way, and if people prefer disabling the warning then I can
do that instead.

Thanks,
Guillem
