GCC 14 newly by default treats as errors a number of situations which
before were only warnings.  For more information see
https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-14/porting_to.html and meta bug #1220571.

Because of this, package zsh fails to compile.  This can be seen online
at:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/live_build_log/openSUSE:Factory:Staging:Gcc7/zsh/standard/x86_64

It can be reproduced locally with command: osc build --clean
--alternative-project home:rguenther:nextgcc

The list of patches linked from

might help.


The (first) error (that halts the build) is:

[   44s] termcap.c:45:14: error: ‘_nc_boolcodes’ declared as function returning
an array
