[Bug c/21161] New: "clobbered by longjmp" warning ignores the data flow

The warning
argument 'obj' might be clobbered by 'longjmp' or 'vfork'
does not take into account the facts that
1) When longjmp() is called, setjmp() returns a non-null value,
2) In this case, when setjmp() returns a non-null value, 'obj' is
reset before being used.
$ gcc -v
