Wa-wa-wa-wa-wait... i thought the whole point of pragmas was
that they were supposed to control the operation of the parser
itself (you know, set the source character encoding and so on).
So by definition they would have to happen at a different level,
above the parsing.
Or do we need to separate out two categories of pragmas --
pre-parse and post-parse pragmas?
