-# NGINX compiles a small test program to check if an added module works as expected.
-#
-# ModSecurity-nginx provides 'printf("hello");' as a test, but newer versions of GCC,
-# as included in Alpine 3.22, do not allow implicit declaration of function 'printf':
-#
-#   objs/autotest.c:7:5: error: implicit declaration of function 'printf' [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
-#
-# For this reason we replace 'printf("hello");' by 'msc_init();', which is always available.
-#
-# This fix is taken from a PR, that has been proposed to the ModSecurity-nginx project:
