I applied this, but messed up, sorry.
I somehow dropped the lib/error.c file from the commit.
When the buildbot yells and screams about a broken build that wasn't
your fault. I pushed a followup commit to fix it:
commit 610623458b7e98ed3e912e4b7ca8050f6ce4c698 (HEAD -> master)
Author: Mark Wielaard <m...@klomp.org>
Date: Fri Aug 27 18:47:30 2021 +0200
Add lib/error.c
This new file was supposed to be part of 4d6dd0e5a "lib: avoid potential
problems with `-fno-common`".

Apologies,
