I completely agree.

The convention in the C++ front end is to say:

  if (pedantic)
    pedwarn (...);

for things like this.  As pedwarns are errors without -fpermissive, this
eliminates the cases in which errors are generated for pedantic
violations.  The same approach should work here.

I would certainly agree that the C++ front-end's handling of the various
diagnostic levels is obscure, and should probably be overhauled at some
point.  But, this is it's current state, and it's been that way for a
long time, so to resolve this issue, we should just play the same game.
