Comment (by rhaas):
There is a gcc warning that one can use for prototypes, however it warns about many benign uses of say {{{printf}}} without prototype. It is also only a warning and I would not want to have to rely on it (or only on its error-ized version from -Werror) to prevent subtle errors (since the wrong prototyped one will work as long as the returned address is less than 2GB) since we have very many other warnings that are triggered when compiling the full set of thorns.
