 out on 225 ports I have compiled, I found only 5 which given an
 error (not only a warning).

 No I don't think that is necessary, No source should be changed.
 Just if some ports known to fail with some opions,
 we can have a single Line in the Makefile:
 
 CFLAGS:= ${CFLAGS:S/-ansi//g}	# port doesn't compile with -ansi.
 
 That is all we can/might do,
 
 kind regards Dirk
