See
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=mame&arch=armel&ver=0.142-1&stamp=1305216060 (successful)
vs
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=mame&arch=armel&ver=0.141-3&stamp=1303528660 (failed)

These are warnings, so when you got rid of -Werror it suddently started
building for armel, and began failing for other arches for different
reasons (some of them might be fixed by changes in rules now).

NB: I have no idea how grave these warnings are. If they make MAME
unusable we just forget about it; if it runs, I say we try to build them
even with NOWERROR.

So we either /not/ use NOWERROR and officially forget about having MAME in
these arches, or we selectively add NOWERROR for arches not in this list:
amd64, i386, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, powerpc, s390.
