>Organization:
Ad Opt Technologies Inc.
>Environment:
System: SunOS neuchatel 5.8 Generic_108528-17 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-100
Architecture: sun4

	
host: sparc-sun-solaris2.7
build: sparc-sun-solaris2.7
target: sparc-sun-solaris2.7
configured with: ./configure --prefix=/misc/ultra-sun-solaris2/gcc-3.2.2 --enable-threads=posix --disable-shared --disable-multilib
>Description:
  In the file <file.c> given below, the <trigger> function might return
  with or without a value.

  If compiling with -ansi -Wall -W -O3, the compiler warns about this,
  but also warns about the function <f> having the same problem,
  which is not the case.

<file.c>
extern int i;
extern int f(void);
extern int trigger(void);

int f(void)
{
  if( i ) return 0;
  else    return 1;
}

int trigger(void)
{
  if( i ) return;
  else    return 1;
}
</file.c>

>How-To-Repeat:
     gcc -ansi -Wall -W -O3 -c file.c
>Fix:
