GCC14 will follow clang in making implicit function declarations an error. Going to be an interesting change.

Probably not much actual code uses this anymore, but IIRC even relatively recent versions of autoconf generate such code for feature tests. Interesting indeed.

It’s having a large impact at gentoo, there’s a tracker currently open for it:

For your information, I compiled GCC13 this morning and just after I recompiled linux 6.3.0 in low latency .... the difference is noticiable.

Michael I used optimized gcc options given in an old phoronix test. First, I notice that I don't have no more console warnings at boot and shadow of the tomb raider benchmark is better (around 5 to 10%).

That's most of my system built with GCC 13.1 now. Chromium builds with clang but uses libstdc++ from GCC 13, so I'm having to add lots of <cstdint> everywhere - yay
