The bug reporter wants this clarified. I'm not entirely convinced it's
necessary, but it doesn't seem to do any harm.

OK for trunk?

I think adding something to the manual about this interplay would
be useful but I'm not sure that saying only that some warnings have
this dependency will help all that much.  I think each warning that
significantly depends on optimization should document it and,
ideally, explain to what extent.  That way users will be clear on
what to expect.  I suspect I might have been responsible for at least
some of the confusion here (I've added warnings that work both with
and without optimization but that do a much better job with it than
without), so I should probably take an AI to review the manual and
try to add some clarity.
