I wasn't talking about GCC. Step through the logic in your head. What
happens if the if statement is false? The program exits. If GCC whines
about it it just means it's not very smart. (It doesn't on my machine,
but does on my server using an older version.) I'll add the assignment
just to silence it, I suppose.

cls

you are right. you can also silent gcc by specifying an __noreturn__ attribute to the eprintf function.
