Yes, Stephen will report new warnings in the configs he tested and
there's a bunch of people who like to go around fixing warnings whenever
they do appear though only in the more common configurations.

If you're looking for coverage on this stuff it's also good to check
with clang as well, it's sufficiently different that it often triggers
extra stuff (eg, turning on -Werror broke i386 allmodconfig for clang-10
since that triggers some stack frame size warnings which are now
errors).
