I ran into the same problem when adding -Werror, and fixed it as follows:

diff --git a/src/Makefile.global.in b/src/Makefile.global.in
index d39d6ca..96fbc60 100644
--- a/src/Makefile.global.in
+++ b/src/Makefile.global.in
@@ -240,7 +240,7 @@ endif # not PGXS
CC = @CC@
GCC = @GCC@
SUN_STUDIO_CC = @SUN_STUDIO_CC@
-CFLAGS = @CFLAGS@
+CFLAGS = @CFLAGS@ -Werror
CFLAGS_VECTOR = @CFLAGS_VECTOR@
CFLAGS_SSE42 = @CFLAGS_SSE42@

That adds -Werror to the compilation of sources but not to the compilation
of configure test programs. I'd be happy to hear if anybody has a cleaner
way of doing this.
