I'm actually a believer in using -Werror, even on the build systems. If you update your tooling you should revalidate anyway and new warnings very well might be important and need immediate addressing.
This is some smooth trolling of the GCC mailing list. The April Fools went right over two people's heads. https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2018-04/msg00002.html …

If you're releasing binaries, sure. If you're releasing source, no. There's no point in making users' builds break with new compiler warnings (which the vast majority of the time are indicative of problems that were already there to begin with).

I can’t tell at a glance, does the patch make every build with -Werror fail?

It makes -Werror raise a warning. So, yes.
