It works now.
The original __diag_ignore_all() only did it for gcc-8 and above
because that was initially needed to suppress warnings that
got added in that version, but this was always a mistake.
689b097a06ba ("compiler-gcc: Suppress -Wmissing-prototypes
warning for all supported GCC") made it work correctly.
