There are a few patches sitting in bugzilla regarding converting old ugly
K&R-style code to ANSI:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2560
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2566
What are the issues to look out for here? Can we pretty much assume that
non-API code is safe to convert and that the only dangerous areas would be
(say) Xlib? And how does the implicit argument passing convention for K&R
differ from ANSI? (Probably assumes 32-bit width everywhere, which really
only matters for float/double...)
I'd really like for gcc to never tell me "function declaration is not a
prototype" ever again.
