I finally remembered what I was thinking about.  The warnings were
from a boost header, but it was not surrounded by pragmas.  That
caused me to have to surround every include of that header with those
pragmas, eventually causing me to just make a new header that did
that.

So my memory completely failed me.  Sorry, Thomas and Steven.
