Overview
Request 1189424 new
- Add gnucobol-3.1.2-C99.diff to add missing includes of
libxml/parser.h which cause GCC 14 to emit compiler error rather
than a warning.
- Add -Wno-error=incompatible-pointer-types to optflags so that GCC 14
can compile test 0987 without failing with an error.
If the request is OK, please forward it to Factory soon-ish so that
the package is ready when we switch the default compiler.
For the reference, I have also looked at upgrading gnu-cobol to
version 3.2 which would have avoided the need for the -Wno-error
option but there are weird test failures on Aarch64 (and IIRC also
ppc64le) so at least for now, I settled on fixing the version we have.

Ping please, this is necessary for the package to keep building when we switch to GCC 14.
Ping please, without this, the package is likely to fail its next rebuild since we have already switched to GCC 14.
