I wonder if adding the symbols in a call checker associated with reduce would be early enough.

#define PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT
#include "EXTERN.h"
#include "perl.h"
#include "XSUB.h"

STATIC OP* ck_reduce(pTHX_ OP* o, GV* namegv, SV* ckobj) {
#define check_reduce(a,b,c) check_reduce(aTHX_ a,b,c)
   PERL_UNUSED_ARG(namegv);
   PERL_UNUSED_ARG(ckobj);
   (void*)gv_fetchpvs("a", GV_ADD|GV_ADDMULTI, SVt_PV));
   (void*)gv_fetchpvs("b", GV_ADD|GV_ADDMULTI, SVt_PV));
   return o;
}

/* ======================================== */

MODULE = List::Util   PACKAGE = List::Util

BOOT:
{
   CV* const reducecv = get_cvn_flags("List::Util::reduce", 18, GV_ADD
+);
   cv_set_call_checker(reducecv, ck_reduce, &PL_sv_undef);
}

There's something missing since $a and $b's package isn't mentioned anywhere, but you should be able to grab the right package since the checker is called for each call of reduce.

If this works, the warning will be disabled if and only if reduce is used, and only for the package using it.

Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
