The CI job was added in your cebead1ebfb (ci: run a pedantic build as
part of the GitHub workflow, 2021-08-08), and later in 6a8cbc41bac
(developer: enable pedantic by default, 2021-09-03) we made "pedantic"
the default.

Is there any point in having this job at all anymore, or is it just a
"does it compile on Fedora?" now?

Your cebead1ebfb notes that its gcc is ahead of the curve, if that's
what we actually want perhaps s/fedora/linux-newer-gcc/ ?

I think this change would be much clearer if we first delete the
now-redundant pedantic flag, and then later do whatever else that's
needed...

I get the same thing on GCC12 on Debian.

Wouldn't a much more useful thing be to upgrade to gcc12 anyway, and
just set -Wno-error=stringop-overread on gcc12 for dir.(o|s|sp)? Then
we'd find any future issues, and blacklist this one known issue...

Or just set -O1 under the same condition.

Why do we need to install "git" now, I'd think because we're upgrading,
but here we're pinning the old version, what changed?
