OK I can stop complaining. I found the relevent section in the g++ 
manual to supress this warning. It is listed as a 'Dialect' option and 
not a 'Warning Message' option which is why I missed to the first time:

"-Wnon-virtual-dtor (C++ only)
     Warn when a class appears to be polymorphic, thereby requiring a 
virtual destructor, yet it declares a non-virtual one. This warning is 
enabled by -Wall."

[and turned off by -Wno-non-virtual-dtor]

Having done that I got a couple of warnings from this department:

"-Wctor-dtor-privacy (C++ only)
     Warn when a class seems unusable because all the constructors or 
destructors in that class are private, and it has neither friends nor 
public static member functions. This warning is enabled by default."

And I also saw some signed/unsigned comparison warnings.

Any comments?

[PS Rene - is bjam flexible enough to allow suppression of these 
warnings on a per-library basis?]
