We have them in 21.5. Ben says they're absolutely safe, and require
no changes to the byte-compiler itself. (They're wrapper macros
that invoke warning inhibitors we already have in the
byte-compiler.)
How do they work? I was thinking along the lines of (declare (ignore
FOO)), which cannot easily be implemented as a wrapper macro because
it does not wrap any body forms.
