HANDLE_PRAGMA is due for overhaul, so that it can work together with
USE_CPPLIB. Its set of arguments will have to be changed. This
requires changes in the backend as well as in all ports that use
HANDLE_PRAGMA. I suggest you do that first; when you have done that,
it should be easier to use the code in c-pragma.c, since HANDLE_PRAGMA
should be passed a (not necessarily proper) superset of parameters,
when compared to HANDLE_SYSV_PRAGMA.
