The diagnostic is complaining that `m1 -= m1` produces a trivial effect (in this case `m1.clear()`) via a syntax that might indicate that the programmer made a typo (i.e. the compiler suspects that you meant `m -= m1` or something).

(libc++'s test suite already passes `-Wno-unused-command-line-argument -Wno-attributes -Wno-pessimizing-move -Wno-c++11-extensions -Wno-user-defined-literals -Wno-conversion -Wno-unused-local-typedef -Wno-#warnings`, for example.)

Thanks for your opinion, your guess was right! It is a unit-test, so seems we need to try to suppress warnings on our side.
