Sure there is. Just use the appropriate
#pragma warning(disable : xxx)
lines as neccessary. Also, #pragma warning push/pop can avoid interference
with any warnings desired by clients for their own code. STLport uses the
following list:

#pragma warning( disable : 4786 ) // identifier truncated to 255 characters
#pragma warning( disable : 4244 ) // implicit conversion: possible loss of
data
#pragma warning( disable : 4800 ) // forcing value to bool 'true' or 'false'
(performance warning)
#pragma warning( disable : 4189) // local variable is initialized but not
referenced
#pragma warning( disable : 4100) // unreferenced formal parameter
#pragma warning( disable : 4245) // conversion from 'const int' to 'unsigned
long', signed/unsigned mismatch
#pragma warning( disable : 4660) // template-class specialization
'basic_filebuf<char,class _STLD::char_traits<char> >' is already
instantiated
#pragma warning( disable :  4701) // local variable 'base' may be used
without having been initialized
#pragma warning( disable : 4075) // initializers put in unrecognized
initialization area
#pragma warning( disable : 4673) // throwing class with private base class
#pragma warning( disable : 4670) // throwing class with private base class
#pragma warning( disable : 4018) // signed/unsigned mismatch
#pragma warning( disable : 4505 ) // unreferenced local function has been
removed

This part surprises me a bit. Are you compiling from the command line or
from an IDE project file? Sometimes you need to "remove all objects", close
the project, and reopen it to resolve its idea of where header files should
be searched.
