This was fixed by gerrit 15501 for the master branch and gerrit 15523
for the openafs-stable-1_8_x branch and will be part of the
upcoming 1.8.11 release.

Be aware that you will run into another build problem due to gcc-13,
linux 6.3 (or higher) with fortify source enabled.  There are open
gerrits (15573/15574) being worked on that addresses this additional
build problem.
