Once upon a time gcc had some combination of command line options that
caused it to make noise when C code ignored the return value of a function:
extern int foo();
int main() {
foo(); /* gcc could be made to moan about the ignored return value */
exit(1);
}
It could, of course, be annoying when moaning about ignoring the
return of value of fprintf and other such functions whose
return values you had no use for.
Nonetheless, I liked having the option around.
Does anybody know what happened to this warning?
In the latest versions (2.95.x, 2.8.x) no amount of twiddling with the
various -W flags seems to be able to make it complain.
Did it go away or am I just missing something.

I can't find anything like that in the current sources, so it went
away (if it was ever there, which I'm not certain about).
Regards,
Martin
