> Please review this change to work around a false positive -Wdangling-pointer
> warning from gcc13.1. The approach being taken is to suppress the warning,
> with a comment describing why it's a false positive. Also a little code
> restructuring to make it more obvious.
>
> I tried various code modifications to avoid the warning, but they were either
> obscure, large and instrusive, or didn't seem reliably future-proof against
> further changes in gcc's analysis. And that's just for the attempts that
> worked.
>
> Testing:
> mach5 tier1-3 with gcc11.2 (current default in Oracle's CI)
>
> Local (linux-x64) tier1 with gcc13.1, and verified the relevant warnings are
> not reported. This required disabling compiler warnings as errors, as there
> are other new warnings from gcc13.1: JDK-8307210 and JDK-8307196.
