There seemed to be some opinions (by other people) that we don't want to invent new pragmas, thus the rationale for emulating gcc, but in this particular case, we *want* incompatibility, and so I don't find their arguments compelling.

This is only a valid argument on the "clang miscompiles" use case, not
in the "debug specific function" use case. IMO, the second case is a
lot more important and long lasting than the first.
