No objection to this change. It's contrary to usual style. I would say
let's convert to pthread_once, but this code is slated for removal
anyway once signals are no longer used for SIGEV_THREAD timers.

Seems like a bogus warning. The enclosing block is the whole function,
the same as the lifetime of the pointer. This might merit
investigation on whether GCC is doing something wrong though..

This was raised/proposed before and is probably an okay change, but
I'd like to understand what the reason "it's probably technically UB"
is.

This one is almost surely not UB because there's no static and the 3
is ignored. The question is just whether the static produces a
difference in the declaration type that makes them clash.

No, the `if` statement forms a block of itself, and then the dependent statement forms yet another block.

As Jens says, an if statement "is a block whose scope is a strict subset
of the scope of its enclosing block. Each associated substatement is
also a block whose scope is a strict subset of the scope of the
selection statement.".

After reading the function declarations section in the C2x draft, I
think you're right. These are both well-defined because they are
adjusted to the same pointer type, because neither the static nor
non-static sizes are actually propagated to the pointer type.
Thanks,
Alex.

Oh, yes, somehow I always forget this. I think we actually remedy it
somewhere else using ?: instead of if, which is a rather hilarious
footgun for anyone who goes gratuitously changing ?: to if for style
reasons...
Anyway, in that case this seems like a reasonable change, though
"dummy" would be a more appropriate var name than "tmp" I think.
