>I agree. This appears to be a seriously retrograde step. Bruce, why?
I'm just enforcing this part of style(9):
Only use the __P macro from the include file <sys/cdefs.h> if the source
file in general is (to be) compilable with a K&R Old testament compiler.
Use of the __P macro in new code is discouraged, although modifications
to existing files should be consistent with that file's conventions.
In general code can be considered ``new code'' when it makes up about 50%
or more of the file[s] involved. This is enough to break precedents in
the existing code and use the current style guidelines.
