75 /* --- Diagnostic suppression in GCC: a tale of woe --- *
76 *
77 * This is extremely unpleasant, largely as a result of bugs in the GCC
78 * preprocessor's handling of @_Pragma@. The fundamental problem is
79 * that it's the preprocessor, and not the compiler proper, which
80 * detects @_Pragma@, emitting @#pragma@ lines into its output; and it
81 * does it during macro expansion, even if the macro is being expanded
82 * during argument collection. Since arguments are expanded before
83 * replacing the macro's invocation with its body, a pragma in an
84 * argument will be emitted %%\emph{before}%% any pragmata in the body,
85 * even if they appear before the argument in the body -- and even if
86 * the argument doesn't actually appear anywhere at all in the body.
87 *
88 * Another, rather less significant, problem is that @_Pragma@'s
89 * argument is a single string literal, recognized in translation phase
90 * 4, before string-literal concatenation in phase 6, so we must build
91 * pragma bodies as token lists and then stringify them.
92 *
93 * As a result, we need some subterfuge here. The @MLIB__PRAGMA_HACK@
94 * macro issues a @_Pragma@ on its argument token list, which it
95 * stringifies; this deals with the second problem. The first is
96 * trickier: we must delay expansion of @MLIB__PRAGMA_HACK@ from the
97 * argument collection phase to the body rescanning phase, and we do
98 * this by splitting the invocations between @GCC_WARNING@ macro calls:
99 * the name is left hanging from the previous call (or from
100 * @MLIB__MUFFLE_WARNINGS@, in the first case) and the body is supplied
101 * by @GCC_WARNING@, which also supplies the next @MLIB__PRAGMA_HACK@.
102 * The remaining problem is to make sure we can dispose of the final
103 * trailing @MLIB__PRAGMA_HACK@ harmlessly, which we do by introducing
104 * an extra argument @emitp@, which may be either @t@ or @nil@; this
105 * dispatches to an appropriate helper macro by means of token-pasting.
106 *
107 * I'm so sorry.
