I don't get that warning with diffutils 3.10, using either GCC 13.1.1 
20230511 (Red Hat 13.1.1-2) on Fedora 38 x86-64, or with GCC (Ubuntu 
12.2.0-17ubuntu1) 12.2.0 on Ubuntu 23.04 x86-64. This was with a plain 
"./configure --enable-gcc-warnings; make".

What platform are you using and how did you configure and build?

I'd rather not litter the code with those ifdefs, as they cut into 
maintenance effort and could mask real bugs.
