--- Comment #1 from Jens Petersen petersen@redhat.com --- I am wondering: is it the new version of cppcheck or the new version of gettext?

--- Comment #2 from Jiri Konecny jkonecny@redhat.com --- Hi seems to be cppcheck version specific. The version of gettext did not changed during the success -> failure period.
Both the failure and successful checks were testing gettext-devel x86_64 0.21.1-3.fc39

--- Comment #3 from Jens Petersen petersen@redhat.com --- Thanks Jiri for clarifying
I see the error for gettext-0.21.1 and gettext0.22 (0.21 seems okay). The source file is "gettext-runtime/gnulib-lib/gettext.h".
I reported it to bug-gettext - depending on the response I may open a bug in savannah too.

--- Comment #4 from Jens Petersen petersen@redhat.com --- According the reply I got from Bruno Haible:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gettext/2023-07/msg00003.html
this should be a false positive.
Should it be reported to cppcheck then?

--- Comment #5 from Jiri Konecny jkonecny@redhat.com --- Sounds reasonable to me. Maybe switching this bug to cppcheck for them to find out if this is a bug in cppcheck or not.
