If we remove protoize, we could probably remove the
Wtraditional-conversion option, since its only use seems to be related
to protoize: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Protoize-Caveats.html
That would remove half of convert_arguments (c-typeck.c) and we will
have one less flag!
If a C maintainer agrees, I volunteer to write the patch.
Cheers,
Manuel.
