For C++17 it is a pedwarn, i.e. an error with -pedantic-errors, or
-Werror=register, warning otherwise, no diagnostics with -Wno-register.
For C++14 and ealier it is (non-default) normal warning, i.e. a warning
with -Wregister, no warning by default or with -Wno-register, error with
-Werror=register.
