warnings=off is using the /W0 flag which is what the visual studio solution 
files use to turn off warnings, so this is doing the right thing.

NOTE: the warning feature is an incidental feature, so it is not propagated. 
That way it doesn't cause a rebuild of everything. If you have a warnings=on 
in one of the project settings, this may be overriding the warnings=off 
argument from the command line.
