That's very prolix syntax. It would be quite unfortunate if you have to
write three #pragmas just to disable one warning.
I'd much prefer something more similar to the current `__extension__'.
For example `__nowarn__', used as a prefix on an expression,
declaration, or statement, could disable all warnings for just that
expression/declaration/statement. Alternatively,
`__disablewarn__(NAME)' could be used in the same contexts to
selectively disable specific warnings.
