I started digging into a warning I noticed on my FDW builds where Postgres is built with meson, e.g. <https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_stage_log.pl?nm=crake&dt=2023-08-16%2018%3A37%3A25&stg=FileTextArrayFDW-build> which has this:
cc1: warning: ‘-Wformat-security’ ignored without ‘-Wformat’ [-Wformat-security]
I found that the pgxs Makefile.global built under meson is a bit different. On debug builds for both this is what I get on HEAD (meson) and REL_15_STABLE (autoconf), stripped of the current components:
HEAD: CFLAGS =-Wshadow=compatible-local
REL_15_STABLE: CFLAGS =-Wall -g
The warning is apparently due to the missing -Wall.
Shouldn't we be aiming for pretty much identical settings?
