    c++: Quash -Wdangling-reference for member operator* [PR107488]
    
    -Wdangling-reference complains here:
    
      std::vector<int> v = ...;
      std::vector<int>::const_iterator it = v.begin();
      while (it != v.end()) {
        const int &r = *it++; // warning
      }
    
    because it sees a call to
    __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<const int*, std::vector<int> >::operator*
    which returns a reference and its argument is a TARGET_EXPR representing
    the result of
    __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<const int*, std::vector<int> >::operator++
    But 'r' above refers to one of the int elements of the vector 'v', not
    to a temporary object.  Therefore the warning is a false positive.
    
    I suppose code like the above is relatively common (the warning broke
    cppunit-1.15.1 and a few other projects), so presumably it makes sense
    to suppress the warning when it comes to member operator*.  In this case
    it's defined as
    
          reference
          operator*() const _GLIBCXX_NOEXCEPT
          { return *_M_current; }
    
    and I'm guessing a lot of member operator* are like that, at least when
    it comes to iterators.  I've looked at _Fwd_list_iterator,
    _Fwd_list_const_iterator, __shared_ptr_access, _Deque_iterator,
    istream_iterator, etc, and they're all like that, so adding #pragmas
    would be quite tedious.  :/
