I wouldn’t be horribly opposed to adding a function called “willItToCompile”, “compileAnyway”, “noSrslyIDontCare”, or some other equally explicit name, simply because that way it’d be easy to ensure that all such code was revisited before shipping the product.

I wouldn’t be horribly in favor, either, because putting a special phrase in the string that you pass to fatalError() does the same thing, and doesn’t complicate the language.
