In the past, I believe Bison has printed "warning" in front of every line 
that's part of a warning.  I'm not sure we should depart from that 
practice.

Can you explain your motivation a little more?  Is it that you want to 
reuse the same *_at invocations to list variants in both the warning and 
complaint cases?  You could add to note_at a bool argument that specifies 
whether to invoke warn_at or complain_at.
