------- Additional Comments From bangerth@dealii.org  2003-05-23 14:30 -------
The noreturn argument is certainly not part of the function's signature,
so it wouldn't be inherited from functions in a derived class. A call to
f1() might therefore indeed return. In this respect, the given attribute
is more like the =0 attribute to virtual functions, which (of course) if also
not inherited.

The warning disappears if you call c1::f1(), in which case the actual function
being called is clear.

So I concur with Andrew.

W.
