[issue33012] Invalid function cast warnings with gcc 8 for METH_NOARGS

There are still quite a few similar warnings on git-master. Do they indicate the same problem or should I open new issues?

For example:

gcc -pthread -c -Wno-unused-result -Wsign-compare -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes    -std=c99 -Wextra -Wno-unused-result -Wno-unused-parameter -Wno-missing-field-initializers -Werror=implicit-function-declaration   -I. -I./Include    -DPy_BUILD_CORE -o Objects/bytearrayobject.o Objects/bytearrayobject.c
In file included from Objects/bytearrayobject.c:96:

     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm using GCC 8.1.0 on Arch Linux.
