[cfe-dev] Warning for partially implemented options/pragmas?

Bug 45329 "segfault with frounding-math" "https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45329" highlights that we are silently allowing people to use options that are unimplemented or only partially implemented.

If use the -frounding-math option on a compile I expect it to work. I do not expect it to trigger an ICE, a crash, or much worse silently not work and produce wrong results.

I propose a warning be printed so that we can avoid issues like bug 45329 in the future. And it needs to be per-target since some targets are closer to supporting this feature than others.

Thoughts?
