I don't believe Clang (as a compiler anyway - as Sean mentioned, it
might be in the Static Analyzer, but even then I suspect not) has such
a warning. You could file a bug about it, but the real challenge will
be trying to get the noise down to an acceptable level to include this
warning in Clang. If you can provide examples of real bugs that such a
diagnostic would have found & include those details in the bug that'd
be really helpful.

Thanks,
