Ok. This makes sense. However, if these warnings are disguising more
    important warnings in some ports, may I suggest people looking to
    fix warnings in those ports try compiling with -Wno-system-headers,
    which I believe will disable the warnings from gcc's headers. Of
    course anyone looking to fix warnings in headers should leave
    -Wsystem-headers on.

I guess this is evidence that #pragma GCC system_header isn't
    quite enough. :-)
