welcome; the use of this flag is a bit odd, but it has the advantage of being
accepted without error going back at least to 4.3.

Currently there is no flag to use to upgrade all currently-enabled pedwarns
from warning to error.  -pedantic-errors also enables the -Wpedantic
pedwarns, while -Werror=pedantic uselessly makes only the -Wpedantic
pedwarns errors.

I suggest that since -fpermissive lowers some diagnostics from error to
warning, -fno-permissive could do the reverse.

Hmm, but that makes '-fno-permissive' different from '-fpermissive
-fno-permissive'?
What about '-fpermissive -fno-permissive -fno-permissive' then?

So I think over-loading -fno-permissive with differen semantics from negating
the option is bad.

Fair enough. Any other thoughts? It occurs to me now that it is already possible to specify this behavior with -pedantic-errors -Wno-pedantic, maybe that's sufficient if a bit cumbersome.

gcc/ChangeLog:

         * doc/invoke.texi: Document -fno-permissive.

gcc/c-family/ChangeLog:

         * c.opt (fpermissive): Accept in C and ObjC as well.
         * c-opts.cc (c_common_post_options): -fno-permissive sets
         global_dc->pedantic_errors.
