I was kind of expecting an update to try and address some of these
issues. Though after re-reading your response the consequence of
throwing away bits here is just the diagnostic is not as precise as it
could be, right? ie, it doesn't change when we issue a diagnostic, just
the contents of the diagnostic.
I filed this into my gcc9 bucket because it doesn't fix a regression,
but it appears that a regression fix does depend on this stuff to some
degree (84095). So I'll try to take a look at this shortly so that we
can unblock 84095.
