I *think* it probably makes sense to issue the diagnostic, but I don't think it makes sense to try to fix it because the macro could be defined differently for different configurations. But the diagnostic is silenced as well as the fix-it, I wouldn't lose a whole lot of sleep over it.

OK, that was a good idea to add the test I described above because it failed `:)`,
so let me improve the check some more.
