since it is early in the release it's not too late to change this,
although I think - if not in configure.ac - it would rather belong
to a separate m4/workarounds.m4 or similar ...

Really? My expectation is that only a GCC compiler will trigger this
condition unless there are other compilers producing a compile error
with strchr(x,y).
In consequence it is fair to use a GCC pragma, especially as the
diagnostic pragma is applicable for the failing GCC versions (according
to the GCC manuals).
