overall looks a good release. Pay attention to breaking changes especially -Wimplicit-function-declaration and -Wimplicit-int warnings defaulting to an error as well as -Wincompatible-function-pointer-types https://releases.llvm.org/16.0.0/tools/clang/docs/Release..., this could happen in configure scripts

Is there a good way to test for the configure script problem, in general? Maybe diff config.h with the old and new compiler versions?

yes that would work also look/compare config.log for details of errors as well.
