But okay, if the committee wants to pretend that `_Atomic` is meaningful in return values, I guess we all have to live with that. > I had asked other questions in related areas that also got answers. > > `const void func(volatile void);` -- the return type is adjusted to `void`; > the parameter type is UB (by lack of specification) and we can do what we > want here.
