IMO this is most likely to be an implementation error on the part of a macro author, where the END macro is missing the label used in BEGIN.  This makes the macro pair unsafe to mix with other macros.  If the macro author doesn’t want safety, why use a label in the BEGIN macro at all?

I see you’re envisioning this being used directly by an end-user, which I suppose is plausible, but I think the same logic applies.  Why add a label to push if you don’t want to be precise about pop?

On the contrary, the user is using two differently-named and independent macro pairs (A_BEGIN/A_END vs B_BEGIN/B_END) and has no idea they are implemented with _Pragma(“clang attribute ...”) under the hood.  The point is to give the same result as two independent pragma pairs, whose regions do not need to be nested.
