C2x has completely removed unprototyped functions, so that () now

This is a change where GNU/Linux distribution builders might wish to
try builds with a -std=gnu2x default to start early on getting old
code fixed that still has () declarations for functions taking
arguments, in advance of GCC moving to -std=gnu2x as default maybe in
GCC 14 or 15; I don't know how much such code is likely to be in
current use.
Happy to see this happen (dropping unprototyped funtions). IIRC older
versions of autoconf are going to generate code that runs afoul of this
problem as well.
