----------------
This diagnostic doesn't tell me what's wrong with the code (and in fact, 
there's very possibly nothing wrong with the code whatsoever). Further, why 
does calling a function *with no arguments* matter when it has no prototype? I 
would imagine this should flag any call to a function without a prototype given 
that the function without a prototype may still expect arguments. e.g.,
```
// Header.h
int f();

// Source.c
int f(a) int a; { ... }

// Caller.c
#include "Header.h"

int main() {
  return f();
}
```
I think the diagnostic text should be updated to something more like `cannot 
verify %0 is being called with the correct number or %plural{1:type|:types}1 of 
arguments because it was declared without a prototype` (or something along 
those lines that explains what's wrong with the code).

I am reasonably certain this is not a bug, but C being weird: 
https://godbolt.org/z/sGj5aejrY.

I'd have to double-check what C89 says, but IIRC, the only thing that was 
specified is how to tell whether the two types are compatible, and it's left 
implicit that the definition is the final arbiter of the function type.
