That was because the compilation error occurred only with clang 18,
which was released in March 2024 and is therefore not yet present
in the *BSD distros.
In the last two years, I got the feeling that clang is adopting new
ISO C features more quickly than GCC (seen with the K&R prototypes
removal in clang 16, now with ckd_add in clang 18). So, would it
make sense to do a CI build with the newest released clang version?
In contrast, a CI build with the newest released gcc version seems
less urgent, since
- Fedora jumps on the newest gcc quickly,
- gcc is not so frequently ahead of clang regarding ISO C language
features.
Right?
Opinions?
