Sorry to be picky Pierre, but that comment is not correct. It should be
instead.

/* A vector of registered pragma callbacks, which is never freed.   */

What I mean is that you are right that the vector is never freed, but
it is not because it is needed during the entire execution, since
middle-end and back-end passes don't know about pragmas.

I hope your patch will be ok-ed with that small change.

Perhaps a future patch would free that registered_pragmas vector, but I
feel that is not necessary, since it is not a big vector in practice.

Regards.
