Yes, but then it's GCC that complains that it doesn't know the warning:

/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/unittests/environ-selftests.c:141:32:
error: unknown option after ‘#pragma GCC diagnostic’ kind
[-Werror=pragmas]
#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wself-move"
^

Oh that's interesting. The gcc doc said that _Pragma was added exactly
for this purpose (to be usable in macros). I'll try that.

I guess that with a comment explaining why we use that it would be ok,
but that would not be my first choice either.

Thanks,
