Well. the case I present was obviously a contrived example for 
demonstration purposes.  The HeapObject class doesn't do anything except 
allow the use to delete objects allocated on the heap, and that's not 
useful for much of anything.

The real problem I'm having is that development tools like Project 
Builder for Mac OS X using GCC as its compiler.  Project Builder does 
not use make files, and there is no way to apply a certain compiler flag 
to a specific module.  This means I cannot modify a make file to app 
-Wno-ctor-dtor-privacy for particular modules that would cause an 
invalid warning.  I can only apply it globally to all modules built by 
the project.  This isn't desirable.  I would like to warning to be 
effective in cases where it would be valid.

Being able to disable the warning within the source code allows for the 
granularity needed to disable the warning only for areas where the 
warning should not apply.

I don't really consider what I logged into the database as a bug per 
se.  It is more of a feature request that I feel will improve the 
quality of the GCC compiler.
