 Warn if an @code{extern} declaration is encountered within an function.
 
+@item -Wno-non-template-friend
+Disable warnings when non-templatized friend functions are declared
+within a template. With the advent of explicit template specification
+support in g++, if the name of the friend is an unqualified-id (ie,
+@samp{friend foo(int)}), the C++ language specification demands that the
+friend declare or define an ordinary, nontemplate function. (Section
+14.5.3). Before g++ implemented explicit specification, unqualified-ids
+could be interpreted as a particular specialization of a templatized
+function. Because this non-conforming behavior is no longer the default
+behavior for g++, @samp{-Wnon-template-friend} allows the compiler to
+check existing code for potential trouble spots, and is on by default.
+This new compiler behavior can also be turned off with the flag
+@samp{-fguiding-decls}, which activates the older, non-specification
+compiler code, or with @samp{-Wno-non-template-friend} which keeps the
+conformant compiler code but disables the helpful warning.

 @item -Winline
 Warn if a function can not be inlined, and either it was declared as inline,
 or else the @samp{-finline-functions} option was given.
