So I made all that work and .. Yes, you're absolutely right.

Busting -Wdeclaration-after-statement is the right thing to do for
guards.

So then I came up with:

#define __ptr_guard(_guard, _name)                                     \
       guard_##_guard##_t _name __cleanup(guard_##_guard##_cleanup)

#define ptr_guard(_guard, _name)                                       \
       __diag(push)                                                    \
       __diag(ignored "-Wdeclaration-after-statement")                 \
       __ptr_guard(_guard, _name)                                      \
       __diag(pop)

#define guard_init(_guard, _var...)                                    \
       guard_##_guard##_init(_var)

#define named_guard(_guard, _name, _var...)                            \
       ptr_guard(_guard, _name) = guard_init(_guard, _var)

#define guard(_guard, _var...)                                         \
       named_guard(_guard, __UNIQUE_ID(guard), _var)

#define scoped_guard(_guard, _var...)                                  \
       for (__ptr_guard(_guard, scope) = guard_init(_guard, _var),     \
            *done = NULL; !done; done = (void *)1)


And that all (mostly) works on clang, but not GCC :-( GCC refuses to
accept _Pragma() inside an expression.

So I now have that ptr_guard() with push/pop for clang but without for
GCC, which means that only clang has a fighting chance to report
-Wdeclaration-after-statement warns until such a time as that we can get
GCC 'fixed'.

FWIW: the work-in-progress patches I have are here:
