Standard C does not say that any extensions are prohibited.
How silly to think so, and write about it, and code a facet of
the compiler diagnostic system that way!

 BTW, I tried to find out who are Harald van Dijk and Joseph S. Myers
(the post of the later sounds like one of insider) but failed.
Did gcc Bugzilla silently disabled "Search By People" option?
Or I am holding it wrong?
 

Joseph S. Myers is one of the major developers of GCC.  I believe he is employed by Red Hat at the moment, and is the co-maintainer of the C front-end for GCC as well as a Release Manager.  He is also involved in the C standards themselves and has represented the UK at C standards meetings.  He is regularly on the gcc mailing lists, and in discussions on bugzilla.  Basically, he is one of the "big guns" in GCC.
(I don't know Harald van Dijk.)
