+Subject: [PATCH] shader_runner: Keep strchr() result const
+
+The include path parsing walks a const char cursor and stores the
+result of strchr() in a plain char pointer. Since glibc 2.43, strchr()
+preserves the const qualifier of its argument when C23 features are
+enabled, which _GNU_SOURCE does, so clang fails the build:
+
+  tests/shaders/shader_runner.c:1665:10: error: initializing 'char *' with an expression of type 'const char *' discards qualifiers [-Werror,-Wincompatible-pointer-types-discards-qualifiers]
+
+line_end is only read, so declare it const.
+
