It's parsed as:

  while (__l < __u)
    {
      __idx = (__l + __u) / 2;
      __p = (const void *) (((const char *) __base) + (__idx * __size));
      __comparison = (*__compar) (__key, __p);
      if (__comparison < 0)
        __u = __idx;
      else if (__comparison > 0)
        __l = __idx + 1;
      else
#if __GNUC_PREREQ(4, 6)
          # pragma GCC diagnostic push
      # pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wcast-qual"
#endif
      return (void *) __p;
#if __GNUC_PREREQ(4, 6)
      # pragma GCC diagnostic pop
#endif
    }

See

  (GCC-pragma) - whether a #pragma is a statement depends on the type of pra

and:

  -Wmisleading-indentation should also detect missing indentation

Sorry, I should have caught this during review (and actually tested the
patch).

Joseph is right, we need braces here.

Thanks,
