GTK won't build with strict-prototypes due to gtkitemfactory.h:

    /* We use () here to mean unspecified arguments. This is deprecated
     * as of C99, but we can't change it without breaking compatibility.
     * (Note that if we are included from a C++ program () will mean
     * (void) so an explicit cast will be needed.)
     */
    typedef	void	(*GtkItemFactoryCallback)  ();

Yuck. Consider wrapping the use of this header with gcc diagnostic
pragmas instead so we don't have to drop a perfectly good warning
flag for the sake of busted libraries?

+1, same thought here. Would GCC diagnostics work for clang though?
