exim builds well with gcc-14, but not with gcc-15. Reproducible: Always

I don't have GCC-15 around at this moment, any chance you could do a quick check if USE=-X results in a successful build?
Created attachment 927699 [details] Exim build log with USE='-X' Exim builds with gcc-15 and USE="-X", and seems to run, thouh there are still warnings during the build.
Yes, thank you, those warnings exist with <gcc-15 already, but upstream believes any compiler warning or error is a compiler bug, because it means that the compiler does not understand their code. It's hard to argue with that. Thanks for trying out.

It isn't enabled by default (upstream) and relies on X, which is dated. It doesn't compile with -std=c23, and upstream has the habit of refusing any fix for compiler warnings/errors, so just disable eximon, as it is just a client tool, the MTA is unaffected.
