-Wconversion is braindead

[Pascal Bourguignon]

-Wconversion does not let pass anything to fun(char c).

With -Werror, it's forbiding any char parameter.

What a broken language and what a broken compiler option!


----------------------------(test.c)------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>

    extern void func(char c);
    extern void funi(int  c);
    extern void caller(void);

    void func(char c)
    {
        printf("%c",c);
    }

    void funi(int c)
    {
        printf("%c",c);
    }


    void caller(void)
    {
        char          c='a';
        unsigned char uc='a';
        int           i='a';
        unsigned int  ui='a';
        func('a');
        func(c);
        func(uc);
        func(i);
        func(ui);
        funi('a');
        funi(c);
        funi(uc);
        funi(i);
        funi(ui);
    }
