I just installed the packages listed in the apt-get line in the 
HowToBuild document.

I did not run the configure script (too lazy ;-). I used the script in
   $ cd build.linux64x64/squeak.cog.spur/build && ./mvm

I haven't faced this problem with the W flag. gcc's description of the 
warning suppression flags are in:

  https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Warning-Options.html

If this flag is not there in clang, perhaps you could try compiling 
without using it in CFLAGS.

HTH .. Subbu
