In my personal preference, it is better than disabling
Wlong-long internally (if the usage of long long requires
the developers' manual configuration, the developer can
understand the cause of long long - but now FT2 uses
long long internally). But yet I'm not sure about the
trade-off between GCC-portable long long versus C99.
If you have a preference, please let me know.

Also, If the compatibility about the default optimization
is not so big problem, disabling the optimized code by
default would be the easiest way.

Sorry. Current pragma design is

#pragma GCC diagnostic push
#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wlong-long"

...

#pragma GCC diagnostic pop

If it is changed to like


#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wlong-long"

...

#pragma GCC diagnostic warning "-Wlong-long"

the older gcc without pragma stack can work.
However, switching "-Wlong-long" does not solve this issue,
because, the root of the warning is "-pedantic".

Hmm. I will try to find any combinations can simulate
-pedantic except of -Wlong-long.
