I'd suggest that it would be very bad practice to suppress warning 
messages from trunk or an RC build. Apart from that you might be able to 
do something by by putting one of the -v variants into the OPT shell 
variable when running the make... I've not tried it.

One thing which would be useful at the Lazarus level would be 
suppression of blank lines emitted by the linker. The FPC team insists 
that this is not their problem, even when the linker has been invoked 
automatically by the compiler.
