As I said, I will take care of this and prepare a patch.

I suggested Arch because it's quite bleeding edge and usually sticks
close to upstream. AFAIK it's the same for Alpine, but Arch is glibc
while Alpine is musl.

We can do Alpine, Arch, FreeBSD and OpenBSD on sr.ht. I can drop Arch
and add NetBSD on my sr.ht repo. That makes NetBSD a bit of second class
citizen when it comes to testing, but at least I will notice if
something breaks.

I'll wait for a decision about -pedantic before submitting the patches,
though.

I already said so, but I'm totally OK with using it. ;-)o
