Please disregard this one, I have submitted a newer patch under a new subject-line:

json-c: Disable icecc to avoid implicit-fallthrough warning as error


On 6/06/19 1:13 PM, Douglas Royds wrote:

icecc preprocesses source files locally before shipping them off to be compiled
on remote hosts. This preprocessing removes comments, including /* fallthrough */
comments in switch statements that normally prevent the implicit-fallthrough
warning. Rather than turning off -Werror completely, just reduce
implicit-fallthrough to a warning only.

In the -native case, we might be building on an earlier gcc, eg. gcc 5.4
under Ubuntu 16.04, so we do disable -Werror completely.

See https://github.com/icecc/icecream/issues/419
