 I disagree (or don't understand what you mean). The -frewrite-includes mode 
is just some auxiliary step that actually has nothing to do with 
preprocessing or compilation, those will be done when the resulting file will 
be compiled. So it should not report or warn about any problem with the file, 
except possible issues related to -frewrite-includes itself, as all those 
reports will be handled when the result is passed to Clang again.

 So if I understand the above correctly as you saying that -Wunused-macros 
should be blocked for -frewrite-includes as well as for the follow-up 
compilation, then this is not right, the warning should be there for the 
actual compilation, just like it is there when compiling the original file 
directly.

 Updated patch that applies to current trunk attached. I've also modified it a 
bit to show that the warnings are blocked for DisableMacroExpansion (since if 
macros are not going to be expanded, they obviously will be unused, so maybe 
it's clearer this way).

 I don't find that one relevant (except that with current trunk line markers 
block -Wunused-macros completely, so this is now broken 
with -frewrite-includes, but I'll submit a patch for that).
