I personally don't like much this pattern of saving a variable, doing
something and then restoring it.

This old patch: https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2012-04/msg01836.html

added control flags to diagnostics, like we have for the various dump_
functions. This seems cleaner to me, but it may be a matter of style.

Otherwise, this looks like an improvement overall.

Cheers,

Manuel.
