FWIW, for those with setups where warnings are treated as errors (my Fedora does this, not sure why the defaults are different), one can do CFLAGS="-Wno-error=incompatible-pointer-types" make as a work-around until this is solved.

Build failure with my Fedora 40.
(gcc14)

The build failure is due to gcc 14 changed policy

Now on the Fedora 40, I am able to build with gcc-14, @lysnikolaou is it still reproduced?

[nineteendo]

Fixed for me too.
