Manuel, I think your patch is a good idea but I'd rather have it add new
directives with different names so that developers won't be confused by having
different behavior, especially if Fortran tests need something different.  I
tried changing your patch to add dg-gcc-error and dg-gcc-warning instead of
wrapping dg-error and dg-warning and it worked, at least as a starting point.

The proposal to get additional requirements was meant to be something that
could happen quickly; I'm sure Gaby and Joseph have ideas about what they'd
like to see, and we might as well incorporate those now, or at least leave room
for extending new directives to handle more functionality.

I'd like to use new directives for new tests that need them, quickly convert
the existing tests that use ugly workarounds, and gradually move other tests. 
New tests should use the new directives, but with explicit help telling
developers how to use the new ones instead of the old ones.

Manuel, I've been busy with other things lately but please let me know what
kinds of tests are giving you problems and I'll help look into them.  Thanks
for doing this.
