... but there is a GCC extension that allows this by default:
<https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Warning-Options.html#index-Wreturn-type>
For C only, warn about a 'return' statement with an expression in a
function whose return type is 'void', unless the expression type is
also 'void'. As a GNU extension, the latter case is accepted
without a warning unless '-Wpedantic' is used.
