Issue: app-arch/gzip-1.12-r2 fails to compile (CLANG-STRICTER-SYSTEM).
Discovered on: amd64 (internal ref: clang-stricter_tinderbox)

NOTE:
(CLANG-STRICTER-SYSTEM) in the summary means that the bug was found on a machine that runs clang with stricter mode

This machine uses clang with CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS=-Werror=implicit-function-declaration -Werror=implicit-int -Werror=incompatible-function-pointer-types -Werror=deprecated-non-prototype
