My point was:

- The original thread proposed making all NetBSD code use ANSI prototypes
  and definitions.

- Someone noted that doing so would break the ABI, because the current
  NetBSD libraries have K&R definititions.

- I pointed out that, since we are improperly combining ANSI prototypes and
  K&R definitions, we have been using ANSI calling conventions all along
  (because of gcc's extension), and going to ANSI definitions would not
  break the ABI.
