    There will be some compile errors in cases where compilation previously
    worked because the undefined function wasn't called due to gcc dead code
    elimination.

    We need to fix some code, but I'd strongly prefer this over the possible
    runtime errors -Werror-implicit-function-declaration prevents in other
    cases.
