I just noticed I mis-spelled the lib name in the title; fltk or flth
anyone?

There are two, being:

A)  FLTK3_EXPORT void alert(const char *,...) __fl_attr((__format__
(__printf__, 1, 2)));
B)  FLTK3_EXPORT void alert(va_list, const char *);

And thereby lies the issue; they are more or less the same thing, but
(A) expands as

        (const char *, ...)     

And (B) becomes:

        (char *, const char *)  

So both are equally bad or good for what the compiler is looking for
(const char *, const char *) at this point in our code... From the
message we see that gcc "prefers" (B), but...

Actually, making (A) be (char *,...) might work to get things working in
our favour too, perhaps?

Hmm, yup, that seems to compile without issues, too.
