I would send a patch for the original issue but I'm wondering how to handle freestanding (see big comment above _AC_C_C89_TEST_GLOBALS). We need another one (<assert.h>) I think for _Static_assert in _AC_C_C11_TEST_GLOBALS too, up until C23? > > Tracing it through, it looks like there's a missing <stdlib.h> include for > free() in autoconf's lib/autoconf/c.m4 (_AC_C_C99_TEST_GLOBALS). > > [0] https://lwn.net/Articles/913505/ > [1] > https://discourse.llvm.org/t/configure-script-breakage-with-the-new-werror-implicit-function-declaration/65213 > > Best, > sam
