i know that recent gcc's will not warn about stuff include via a
system include path. it will warn about things found via -I which can
get annoying with third party libs like GNOME stuff where you do
-I/usr/include/glib/<ver>/. but i don't think doing -I<system path>
will re-enable warnings for files found via that, so we should be safe
since ftw.h found via -I/usr/include is OK.
