The one problem I see is that if "pedantic" is turned on, we get lots of 
warning messages from source code we do not have under our own control. I 
would definitly like to be able to disable such warning for certain include 
files, for example. 

From what I know, gcc does not have a #pragma disable... to put around include 
statements. 

Is there a solution to this problem?
