That is invalid C23, and GCC 15 defaults to -std=gnu23.
In C17 and earlier, type fn (); meant a function with type return type
and unspecified arguments, in C23 this means the same as in C++,
function with no arguments, same as type fn (void);
If cb is only used for functions with 9 arguments with compatible types,
then fix it by changing void (*cb)() to
void (*cb)(ZnWinfo *, Field, ZnBBox *, ZnBBox *, ZnPoint *, ZnBBox *, int, int,
int)
If it is used for functions with different argument types and their count,
then you need to rework the code. Perhaps it could use ... functions (but
note that all the functions passed to it have to be then declared and
defined with ...), or pass union of several different function pointers,
whatever.
Or temporarily use -std=gnu17.
