Yeah.  Our normal theory for this kind of thing is "people are
likely to build our old branches with modern toolchains", so
we are going to have to back-patch C23 compatibility sooner or
later.  In fact, we'll have to back-patch to 9.2, or else
decide that those branches are unbuildable on modern platforms
and hence out of scope for compatibility testing.

We have a little bit of grace time before this needs to happen,
but perhaps not very much.
