If it's possible to turn off just that warning, then +several.
It's routinely caused buildfarm failures, yet I can detect exactly
no value in it. If there were sufficient cross-procedural analysis
backing it to detect whether any caller examines the subroutine's
result value, then it'd be worth having. But there isn't, so those
extra returns are just pedantic verbosity.
