The code to globally turn off warnings is:

  $^W = 0;

Another way to do it is to setup an empty signal handle for the
special "__WARN__" signal:

  $SIG{"__WARN__"} = sub {};

That will supress warnings even if some code tries to turn warnings
back on later.

Either one should be made optional so developers can run with full
warnings.
