Yes.  Few days ago, I found Ruby 1.9 defines rb_reg_initialize with 5
arguments and there are 2 invocations for rb_reg_initialize with 4
arguments.  (reported in [ruby-dev:24489])

If Ruby defines rb_reg_initialize in ANSI style, the problem is
detected by a compiler.

So I strongly recommend ANSI style to avoid similar problems in
future.
