When -pedantic is not given (the default) a pedwarn is an hard error. A pedwarn becomes a warning when -permissive is passes (and the code is thus accepted as an extension, which I would find useful for legacy code). But I have no strong opinion, in general. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31988
