Describe the problem

I was trying to make a project using Waveshare 4.0.1 7 color E paper display. i tried the epd4in01f-demo code provided by waveshare, the code compiles fine at 1.8.19 but when compiling it on latest Arduino IDE 2.3.2 (And nightly) i am getting errors and code fails to compile, the error is very ambiguous and does not explain whats wrong, i will be attaching the error log for 2.3.2 along with output from 1.8.19 (if needed).

(I'm new to GitHub, and this is my first issue report. I tried my best to be as detailed and specific as possible in describing the bug. Please let me know if you require any further information.)

To reproduce

To reproduce
please first extract the library provided by waveshare which i will attach below
[esp32-waveshare-epd.zip]
to Documents\Arduino\libraries
set the board to ESP32S3 (i am using https://raw.githubusercontent.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/gh-pages/package_esp32_index.json)
try compiling the provided code in epd4in01f-demo.ino file inside the attached zip below.
[epd4in01f-demo.zip]

Expected behavior

The code should compile just like in Arduino 1.8.19 and provide appropriate error if something is wrong so that it can be easily understood by the user.
