Oh, sorry. Yes, that's true if it were a command line flag. However, the 
link line looks like this:
gcc -g -O2 -pedantic -W -Wformat -Wunused -Wimplicit -Wreturn-type 
-Wswitch -Wcomment -Wtrigraphs -Wformat -Wchar-subscripts 
-Wuninitialized -Wparentheses -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align 
-Wwrite-strings -Waggregate-return -Wstrict-prototypes 
-Wmissing-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Winline -Wredundant-decls -o 
.libs/xmllint xmllint.o  ./.libs/libxml2.dylib -lpthread -lm

and I need it to look like this:
gcc -g -O2 -pedantic -W -Wformat -Wunused -Wimplicit -Wreturn-type 
-Wswitch -Wcomment -Wtrigraphs -Wformat -Wchar-subscripts 
-Wuninitialized -Wparentheses -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align 
-Wwrite-strings -Waggregate-return -Wstrict-prototypes 
-Wmissing-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Winline -Wredundant-decls -o 
.libs/xmllint xmllint.o  ./.libs/libxml2.a -lpthread -lm

I don't know of a way to change this with the environment variables.
