I haven't used clang. I use the gcc toolchain. Sorry

gcc has the unused-but-set-variable warning that gets suppressed with 
that flag. See https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Warning-Options.html

If you use clang, you will have to find the equivalent.

This is found in mesa-common-dev package which gets install 
automatically as a dependency for libgl1-mesa-dev.

If I were you, I would scan through the warnings on 64b compile just to 
make sure I am not missing anything important. Both int and pointer were 
32b on 32b compile so one could force a pointer into int. But a pointer 
is 64b on 64bit compiles. Storing a pointer into a int is problematic.
