Description

I'm proposing to remove -pedantic from debug compilation flags, primarily motivated by #3227. Though in general I'm not convinced that there is much value of having pedantic at all.

In theory, -pedantic should help keeping our code portable across compilers. Why do you think there's no value in that?

I agree that we should keep language extensions out. However, how redundant semicolons fall into this category? Is it a language extension?

I think the ISO C++ standard requires compliant compilers to warn about duplicate semicolons (yes, there are warnings that are mandated by the standard).
