What has happened is that this option became on by default in R15B02 and 
the user can only disable it, if desired. Do a 'dialyzer --help' and you 
will see:

   ....
   -Wno_behaviours
      Suppress warnings about behaviour callbacks which drift from the 
published
      recommended interfaces.
    ...

I do not know why the HTML documentation has not been updated, but we 
will try to correct this for R15B03.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
