This patch does the opposite of what I had in mind.  I was thinking of
an option that would make system headers ordinary - all warnings
enabled, no magic extern "C", etc.

Possibly your -Wno-system-headers should be the default and
-Wsystem-headers should do what I had in mind.  We've been going that
way for awhile now.
