If the only problem is the warnings with GCC, why not use
"-Wno-variadic-macros" when the option is available?

It's interesting that GCC uses that option to compile itself, when
strict warnings are enabled.

I'm guessing the "(void)" version of the macro works fine with all
compilers, but the problem being unnecessary strings in the binary on
some of them? I think current GCC doesn't have this problem, and
older GCCs did (2.x era), and that it may be worse on the older GCCs
when an empty inline function is used.

ps. I'm amazed at those download figures for libcurl!
