On gcc 12 we started seeing this:

So disable those warnings to keep building with perl devel headers.
Noticed, among other distros, on opensuse tumbleweed:

Fix below compile error:

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
After digging perl5 repository, I find out that we will meet this
compile error with perl from v5.21.1 to v5.25.4
