Was it really error? Or was it warning? Unrecognized pragmas shouldn't
generate errors, they should be ignored by compiler (and user warned
about).

I assume, that it was for turning peephole optimization off. Generally
pragmas give hints to compiler, so it is really not needed.
Probably someone tried various optimizations on some compiler and left
those pragmas in for some reason.
