Fix fr30 libgloss build

gcc-14 will default to c99 and as a result a fair amount of old code in 
newlib (particularly libgloss) is failing to build.  I don't offhand 
know how many patches will be necessary to fix the various failures. 
I'll just pick them off one by one from my tree.

This particular patch works around the return-mismatch problem 
syscalls.c for fr30.

That file is a bit odd in that most functions are declared as returning 
an integer, but the implementations look like:

> int
> _read (file, ptr, len)
>      int    file;
>      char * ptr;
>      int    len;
> {
>   asm ("ldi:8 %0, r0" :: "i" (SYS_read) : "r0");
>   asm ("int   #10");
> 
>   return;
> }


Note the lack of a value on the "return" statement.  The assumption is 
that the interrupt handler implementing syscalls will put the return 
value into the proper register, so falling off the end of the C function 
or returning with no value works in the expected way.  It's not good 
code, but it probably works.

Working from that assumption I decided to just use a pragma to disable 
the upgraded diagnostic from GCC -- essentially preserving existing 
behavior.

This is the only fr30 specific issue that needs to be resolved and the 
only issue (so far) I've seen of this specific nature.

OK for the trunk?

Looks fine.  Feel free to push.
