------- Comment #7 from manu at gcc dot gnu dot org 2008-10-22 18:19 ------- The return is generated because we generate one (if there is none) everytime we reach the end of a function. This is used later to produce "control reaches end of non-void function". The compiler-generated try-catch forces the creation of this extra return. The problem is that we do not want to mark all generated return with no_warning, because we will miss valid warnings. Not sure yet how to detect which ones were generated because we naturally reach the end of a function or they are forced because of compiler-generated code.
