And I think GCC is wrong to wan here. The point of the Wempty-body
warning is to catch things like:

if(a);
  return 2;
return 3;

However,

if(a)
  ;
return 2;

seems intentional. Clang++ does not warn on the latter and it prints
for the former:

warning: if statement has empty body [-Wempty-body]
  if(a);
       ^
note: put the semicolon on a separate line to silence this warning

which seems a nice way to silence the warning instead of ugly { ; }

Cheers,

Manuel.
