[cfe-dev] clang warns on libcxx chrono and string usage of user-defined literals

I am calling clang using a custom driver, and it seems clang diagnostics
state is different than the command line driver. I'm looking into this
issue now.

This aside, I think that clang turns off all warnings for system include
files, so compiling from the command line effectively hides this warning as
well as potential others.

So the question is wether this is a real issue or not, as the suffixes in
chrono are lacking an underscore but are not user-defined but
system-defined.
