Well, when I think about it, -pedantic is primarily for *restricting*
what the compiler accepts - i.e. produce diagnotics for certain
extensions etc. It may not be appropiate for something that changes
the semantics of a program. For that, historically -ansi has been
used, optionally combined with -pedantic, it seems. Of course -ansi
is not a suitable option name for Java - but then it is hardly that
for C or C++ either. But there seems to be a family of flags -std=XXX
that may be suitable.
