Re: Why is this diagnostic only reported with -pedantic?

The code in baz() is perfectly legal since ISO C++ allows void
returns. -pedantic should not warn about it because it is not a GCC extension
at all. Would you please file a bugreport about the incorrect warning emitted
for baz()?

That looks like a C program to me, and it is not valid in C. I don't know why it only warns sometimes, though.
