Yet another possibility is to use the docbook tags:
<funcdef><function>func()</function>
<returnvalue>int</returnvalue></funcdef>.
Then we can define the desired formatting for such markup (similar to
<menuchoice><guimenu>...</guimenu><guimenuitem>...</guimenuitem></menuchoice>).
I looked into this. It appears that <funcdef> is fairly tightly tied
to C function declaration syntax, plus it sounds like it might get
deprecated in future docbook versions.
funcsynopsis, funcdef, function, ... keeps valid in Docbook 5, see: https://tdg.docbook.org/tdg/5.1/funcsynopsis.html . There is even an option to distinguish between K&R and ANSI style during rendering: <?dbhtml funcsynopsis-style='kr'?>
