The version number in DIAG_IGNORE_NEEDS_COMMENT is not a restriction on
where the warning is suppressed, it's for documentation purposes only, the
most recent version known to need the suppression (so any such calls
naming a version older than the oldest now supported for building glibc
are appropriate for review to see if they are still needed).
