I actually am not a big fan of "stack" for a thing like this, to be honest.
Wouldn't it be sufficient for the callers who want specific behaviour from
its callees to

 - save away the current error/warning routines;
 - set error/warning routines to its own custom versions;
 - call the callees;
 - set error/warning routines back to their original; and
 - return from it

at least in the code paths under discussion?
