Please remember to think for yourself. ;-) Junio generally gives good advice, but if you don't see the wisdom in it, that's the time to ask questions, not blindly do a wrong thing.

In this case, since the NO_NORETURN knob is to work around a gcc bug, wouldn't it make sense to add a -Wno-something-or-other option to BASIC_CFLAGS or COMPAT_CFLAGS when it is set?

Hope that helps, Jonathan
