autoconf provides config.log files with details.

In work/samba-3.6.25/source3/config.log you'll find

In file included from conftest.c:445:
./../tests/trivial.c:4:1: error: return type defaults to 'int' [-Wimplicit-int]
    4 | main()
      | ^~~~

gcc 14 (imported a couple months ago into NetBSD-current) enables more
warnings by default, and this is one of them.

The configure test needs to be fixed to have 'int' before main, or the
package Makefile needs to disable the warning (adding
-Wno-implicit-int to the CFLAGS).

Probably you'll stumble over more similar problems, you can send a
patch when you fixed them all :-)
