The version listed with the DIAG_* macros is always the version that is
observed to have the bad warning - the point of the version number is to
indicate to recheck if the bad warning is still seen after support for
that version is obsoleted. It's whatever someone was testing with, not
necessarily the most recent version with the bad warning (so if listed as
4.8, it may well still be the case that the warning is present with
current GCC trunk).
