The AC_PROG_CC_C_O macro checks if compiler can use both -c and -o
options together and if not it defines the NO_MINUS_C_MINUS_O symbol.
It is not used in current codebase and therefore removed.
Checking for int32_t and uint32_t types is already done by the
PHP_CHECK_STDINT_TYPES m4 macro.
The PHP_CHECK_TYPES m4 macro has been once used by the mysqlnd and has
been removed via 14caf174ff and
additionally, the internal unused macro _PHP_DEF_HAVE_FILE has been
removed.
Additionally, the unused PHP_HAVE_STDINT_TYPES symbol has been removed.
Autoconf 2.59d (released in 2006) [1] started promoting several macros
as not relevant for newer systems anymore, including the `AC_HEADER_STDC`.
This macro checks if given system has C89 compliant header files such
as `<string.h>`, `<stdlib.h>`, `<stdarg.h>`, `<float.h>`,... and defines
the `STDC_HEADERS` symbol [2]. Case is that current systems should be
well supported with at least C89 standard headers [3].
Given headers are still additionally checked with the `AC_PROG_CC`
macro, yet not needed anyway.
Additionally, the HAVE_MEMCPY check has been removed. The memcpy
function is standardized by C89 and later.

This might happen if OBJ_RELEASE is used on an object that was already
released by GC. Specific cases of this issue were previously fixed in
ffaee27478 and
72104d2b6e, however the issue still
affects 3rd-party extensions using OBJ_RELEASE.
The whole GC type NULL + OBJ_IS_VALID + IS_FREE_CALLED system seems
overly complicated and can probably be simplified in 7.4.
The sprintf function has been normalized to php_sprintf via
61364b5bb1.
This patch removes the checks to make a custom sprintf function
The ZEND_BROKEN_SPRINTF has been removed and the
hardcoded #define zend_sprintf sprintf is used.
The php_sprintf and zend_sprintf are now symbols to sprintf.
This patch now removes the custom PHP definitions of the php_sprintf and
zend_sprintf functions in favor of the C99 sprintf which is also
standardized in C89 already. Once, on some systems sprintf didn't behave
in same way.
Opcode order changes in 7.4 and the EXT_STMT is now declare the
DECLARE_ANON. Fix this by returning the opline from compile_class_decl
to avoid any fragile opcode searching.
