Using either pragma > in this case? No, having two pragmas that do the same thing is what IMO is clutter (when just one will do, and there's one already present). Perhaps I should say what I mean by clutter, I mean it's more or less another name for the same thing, so it could be uneccessary. It may make it easier to read, but it's just a short hand for something. I'm relying on what Steve posted, and don't know if there's any other difference related to this pragma apart from the shorthand.
