an ambiguity in C89 which will never be fixed

sebsite an ambiguity in c89 which will never be fixed 2026-08-10 i found some ambiguous wording in the c89(/c90) standard, where gcc and clang disagree on the interpretation. it concerns the behavior of implicit function declarations, which were removed in c99, so this was never disambiguated. for those unaware: c89 has a cool "feature" where, if you try to call a function which doesn't exist, rather than erroring out, the function is implicitly declared as a function with unspecified parameters
