The problem I see here is that the error is just written wrong.
I think it should say something like:
warning: passing arg 1 of `func' is not converted due to a prototype.

No, the message really means what it says. This warning was designed for people
who also use compilers which do not support prototypes. Nowadays, it is very
unlikely to be useful for anybody; IMHO we might as well remove it.

My proposal has been to usurp the option name for "warn for any implicit
conversion that may change a value", which would at least have uses (e.g.
catching some signed/unsigned security issues); and I don't care much
about whether the other existing warnings remain available under
-Wconversion-traditional. Implementing this has however never been a
priority.

------- Comment #8 from lopezibanez at gmail dot com 2006-07-05 11:34 -------
I think we may close this bug report since either:
* The solution is to split the functionality of Wconversion as conceived by the
Wcoercion project http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Wcoercion#Background. In that case,
this is a duplicate of bug 9072.
* The message is misleading. Maybe it should say: passing arg 1 of 'func' as
short instead of 'int' due to prototype. If you agree, I can generate a patch
in no time.
* This is not a bug. As said in comment 5, Wconversion is meant to warn about
conversions that would be different in the absence of prototypes. So we may
just close the bug.
