Sorry for the multiple patches--I noticed the commit author was off in the first one.

This patch converts the warning to an error, should it be decided that it's prudent to do so (I'm in favor of doing so). If not, I think the other two patches I submitted are good to merge.

Thanks for all the feedback so far!
