These usually reflect bugs, but we can't conveniently pin them on
a particular file (they're usually due to a cycle between macros and
functions in several files), so I don't think using the standard
"<FILE>:<FOO>" syntax for warnings would be all that useful, but it
wouldn't make things worse either, so a "<FILE>:0:" prefix sounds like
a good idea (where <FILE> would presumably be the file we're eagerly
macroexpanding).

Sometimes they're highly dependent on specific ordering of compilation
of files, but if you can reproduce them reliably, then please report
them so we can try and fix them.
