The preferred way is to rewrite the code to make it clearer.  For
__getresgid, that would probably involve writing to *rgid, *egid,
*sgid directly, without relying on the temporary variables.

For cases where this is not possible, there are the
DIAG_PUSH_NEEDS_COMMENT, DIAG_IGNORE_NEEDS_COMMENT,
DIAG_POP_NEEDS_COMMENT macros.
