“The `#pragma’ command is specified in the ANSI standard to have an arbitrary implementation-defined effect. In the GNU C preprocessor, `#pragma’ first attempts to run the game `rogue’; if that fails, it tries to run the game `hack’; if that fails, it tries to run GNU Emacs displaying the Tower of Hanoi; if that fails, it reports a fatal error. In any case, preprocessing does not continue.” — Manual for the GNU C preprocessor for GNU CC 1.34.
