      Extract from gcc man page :

      [-pedantic] There is no reason to use this option; it exists only to
satisfy
pedants.

      This would answer questions about what compilers designers have
in mind when generating warnings :-))))))))
      I used to use it, thinking that all warnings are good to see and
track
down. But with time I feel like Dominik about this particuliar option.
