I believe they still don't stay around in C, but they do stay around in C++. So perhaps we could just add cp_parser_get_pragma_kind routine or similar that would for a token return us a pragma_kind and use it in the 5 or how many spots, plus adjust the c-family assert to be id < 256 and state that C FE reserves 8 bits for pragma_kind and C++ FE doesn't have an upper bound.
