The problem is that gcc, for whatever reason, started issuing a (useless) warning if you pass the
`-Werror=implicit-function-declaration` option to gcc for C++ files. I don't like the solution of removing that flag
for C files. I think the better solution will be to have a set of options that are common to both C and C++ (all but
this one currently), and then add `-Werror=implicit-function-declaration` only to the options for C. Until then, I
think we live with this warning. It's better than losing the checking for C files.
