I think -Wsystem-headers makes sense (at least in C) because we maintain
the system headers as part of FreeBSD and therefore want to fix issues
in them as well.

If the C++ standard library has a lower quality level goal, then it may
be appropriate to disable -Wsystem-headers for C++ so at least the
programs themselves can use high WARNS.
