Details

On Tbox-1 there used to be couple of boxed (brad and another one) that would
always show the current warning count in the build. That made it easy to see
when some commit added a lot of warnings; it also prompted some people to try to
reduce the number of warnings.

Can a similar counter be added to Tbox-2 (for those machines that do a clobber
build, such as brad)?

Actually, this is a feature request that could be valid for tbox2 in general and
not just specifically ours...  let me fix the component instead.

I suggest we WONTFIX this in favour of bug 703121 which would provide a much stronger mechanism to prevent new warnings being introduced.

As per comment 3: WONTFIX. WARNINGS_AS_ERRORS, now inverted and called ALLOW_COMPILER_WARNINGS, is much better.
