Thanks to everyone who replied to my question about gcc 1.35 flagging
	extern int	whatever();
and
	extern int	whatever(char * format, ...);
as having conflicting types.  The consensus is that while the presence of a
"traditional"
	extern int	whatever();
declaration tells a conforming compiler/interpreter nothing about the
parameters of the function "whatever", it *does* represent a guarantee to
the compiler/interpreter that "whatever" takes some fixed number of arguments.

Folks interested in using gcc to compile X Window System applications may wish
to make the attached change to their "fixincludes" script.
