I understand that BOOST_MSVC is needed to detect MSVC because other
compilers besides MSVC define _MSC_VER.

But what about #ifdefing #pragma warning, should it use _MSC_VER or
BOOST_MSVC? The reason why the ifdefing is needed is to prevent GCC
and other compilers issuing a warning about #pragma warning, but
presumably compilers that have _MSC_VER defined wouldn't warn about
that, would they?
