Tools build errors reported by Vasyl Maksym Lanko so far:

*** Failed target: substring.o

And:

/home/maksym/netbsd-gsoc/src/tools/texinfo/../../external/gpl2/texinfo/dist/lib/mkstemp.c:43:10: error: too many arguments to function '__gen_tempname'; expected     0, have 2

I have warning about the same in the logs from my builds on macOS from clang.  Apparently gcc 15.1 makes these conflicts an error now.

>How-To-Repeat:
On Manjaro Linux with gcc 15.1: build.sh -m amd64 tools

>Fix:
For the first error: texinfo/dist/lib/system.h enables the prototypeless declaration because configure never checks for the declarations of strcasecmp and strncasecmp and therefore the relevant #defines aren't in config.h.

For the second error: texinfo/dist/lib/mkstemp.c has an unconditional prototypeless declaration for __gen_tempname.
