[ rechecked with gcc-3.2.1 prerelease ]

The following program generates a superfluous warning when compiled
with -std=c99 or -std=gnu99.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <stdlib.h>
int main (void) __attribute__ ((noreturn));
int main (void)
{
        exit(1);
}
------------------------------------------------------------------------
volition:~/tmp$ gcc-3.0 -std=c99  -c test.c
test.c: In function `main':
test.c:6: warning: function declared `noreturn' has a `return' statement
volition:~/tmp$
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obviously, this warning is bogus since there is no return statement
anywhere in the program :>  The warning is not produced by gcc 2.95.4
nor in the default -std=gnu89 mode.

Although this example is trivial, I encountered the bug in an actual
program that depends on -std=gnu99 (since C99 features are used).  In
the program, main() starts an event loop which never directly returns;
the program exits by calling exit().
