There one had:
warn2.cc:6: error: suggest a space before ‘;’ or explicit braces around empty

While CLANG requires a new line (according to the message), such that
#define EMPTY
  while()
    EMPTY;
would be fine while
  while(f()) ; // or: while(f())EMPTY;
wouldn't. (Given how stray spaces enter the code, I'd also like the "while(f())
;" warning.)

Me too, although I have a log file here with "clang -Weverything" for our code,
from which I extract all warning classes (164M) - and look at the individual
warnings for those looking potentially interesting. [BTW: One should also
consider adding -Weverything to GCC, which helps to find discover warning
options.]
