I know you are trying to collect the exports in a single pass, but
parsing the compiler warnings is really fragile.

$ gcc --version
gcc (SUSE Linux) 4.8.3 20140627 [gcc-4_8-branch revision 212064]
...

The output looks like this:
$ echo '_Pragma("GCC warning \"KBUILD_AUTOKSYM_DEP: test\"")' | gcc
-Wall -c -xc -
<stdin>:1:13: warning: KBUILD_AUTOKSYM_DEP: test [enabled by default]

Clang output is similar, except that the text appears twice in the output:
$ echo '_Pragma("GCC warning \"KBUILD_AUTOKSYM_DEP: test\"")' | clang
-Wall -c -xc -
<stdin>:1:1: warning: KBUILD_AUTOKSYM_DEP: test [-W#pragma-messages]
_Pragma("GCC warning \"KBUILD_AUTOKSYM_DEP: test\"")
^
<scratch space>:2:6: note: expanded from here
 GCC warning "KBUILD_AUTOKSYM_DEP: test"
     ^

What is worse, older gccs do not support the GCC warning pragma:
$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20070115 (SUSE Linux)
...
$ echo '_Pragma("GCC warning \"KBUILD_AUTOKSYM_DEP: test\"")' | gcc
-Wall -c -xc  -
<stdin>:1: warning: ignoring #pragma GCC warning

I guess I could live with a non-redable sed script embedded in a
Makefile, if I knew that it won't need updating for each new compiler
release :).
