I think we cannot and the reason is given in the comment there:
  # Append -Werror to CFLAGS so that configure can catch the warning
  # "assignment from incompatible pointer type", which is related to
  # the babeltrace change from 1.0.3 to 1.1.0.  Babeltrace 1.1.0 works
  # in GDB, while babeltrace 1.0.3 is broken.

Also not due to the reason above.
